The potential of to improve health outcomes and reap astounding health care cost savings is really beginning to dawn on folks

Here's a good article published in the Barn Raiser that focuses on the study we at ILSR did with the Southern Rural Black Women's Initiative (SRBWI)

Of course, telehealth is only possible if everyone has access to robust, reliable high-speed

Marcus Hutchins at Malwaretech posted about a new "feature" of Chrome that reports to 3rd parties what websites you visit.

This means YOUR CLIENTS can have the URLs of your TELEHEALTH system reported to 3rd parties.

So -- for example, if you use Psychology Today for telehealth, they will know the client is seeing a mental health professional. If you use Zoom, they will LIKELY just know the client went on a Zoom call -- but then you have a unique Zoom URL link, so its possible someone will bother to catalogue that your particular Zoom link is medical. So, again, same problem.

This is not a HIPAA problem under your control, but perhaps some client education on browser privacy settings is in order?

For people who for some reason still want to use Chrome:
Settings > Privacy >Ad privacy, then just toggle everything off.

Hey and docs, give me a potential scenario in which in an active battlespace could be useful. Like the patient can't be moved for a while because of enemy fire, and they have a serious injury, how could telehealth be effective and for what?

Have you ever done a telehealth video chat?

Amazon recently made it easier by adding nationwide video
telemedicine to its virtual clinic.

"A pilot program at Texas Tech University has the potential to solve many of those concerns facing rural health care in West Texas. And the program is getting a boost from the Texas Legislature.

The program...provides emergency telemedicine medical services and telehealth services in rural areas by installing secure video calls and wireless patient monitoring in ambulances already in transit to an emergency room."
