Top of Mind 2021 Program Recap

26 Top of Mind 2021 Recap More Can Be Done to Reach Patients and Improve Access with Telehealth Services “Modeling Health Care” explored the impact of COVID-19 on business operations, policy, and financial modeling across the industry and how leaders are planning to carry the momentum forward. Aneesh Chopra, President of CareJourney and former Chief Technology Officer of the United States, discussed these issues with three experts representing payer-provider organizations and the government. The panel discussed the explosion of telehealth and the industry’s responsibility to ask: Are providers and health systems getting to the right patients with telehealth services? Were the most chronically ill, most fragile, and those in greatest need of care accessing it online in the absence of the traditional in-person office visit? Panelists agreed more must be done to reach those patients and others who may have technological access issues.
