HRSA today announced nearly $19 million in new awards to expand access to high-quality healthcare through telehealth and technology-enabled learning. These awards will increase access to nutrition services, expand the use of emerging technologies to improve healthcare delivery, and strengthen the healthcare workforce in rural communities and other areas with limited access to care.

Message from CAPT Heather Dimeris Recognizing Telehealth Awareness Week

As we recognize Telehealth Awareness Week, I want to thank you for the work you do every day to expand access to quality health care through telehealth.

Across the country, telehealth is helping patients receive care closer to home, supporting rural providers in reaching specialist expertise, and improving access to high-quality care. These advances are possible because of your dedication, innovation, and commitment to patients and providers.

At the Office for the Advancement of Telehealth, we are proud to work alongside you. Thank you for your partnership and for all you do to bring quality care to more people.

With appreciation,

CAPT Heather Dimeris
