Overview:
As healthcare organizations extend care coordination and management outside the hospital through telehealth, a critical component to their success is connectivity. A virtual care program won’t last long if the care provider and patient can't reliably communicate. In many cases they're using 5G to make that connection, whether it be in an urban area where bandwidth is crowded or a remote region where distance and geography can be challenging.
In this hour-long panel, executives will explore how connectivity is established and maintained for telehealth programs and how this technology is improving clinical outcomes.
Learning Objectives:
Attendees of this panel will:
- Gain an understanding of 5G and how it's used in urban and rural settings
- Understand the value of reliable connectivity to telehealth programs
- Learn best practices for using 5G to establish a telehealth program and solve specific care coordination challenges
- Identify opportunities to use telehealth to enhance management and improve clinical outcomes.
