“We commend the UMMC Center for Telehealth for this well-deserved recognition. For more than a decade, the Center for Telehealth has been serving remote and underserved communities with their forward-thinking approach to telehealth. Telehealth solutions are not only vital to the treatment of chronic illnesses, but they also provide innovative means to improve patient outcomes and lower medical costs. We hope UMMC’s award serves as a signal for medical centers across the country to use telehealth to bring effective, low cost, high result healthcare solutions to the Americans who need them most.”
