Dr. Neil Evans explains how VA is approaching telehealth to close the digital divide in the hybrid health care environment.
Before the onset of COVID-19, the Department of Veterans Affairs already had the biggest telehealth program in the nation, but the pandemic forced the agency to rapidly scale its existing capabilities to continue to deliver critical health care to veterans in a remote environment. Dr. Neil Evans joins us to discuss the progress VA has made with telehealth, how remote care offerings are closing the digital divide and the next steps in this journey.
