HIMSSCast: Telehealth in the trenches

Pam Hoffman, the medical director of telehealth services at Yale New Haven Health Services and Yale Medicine, discusses how telehealth became a service that required a "clinical champion" to a necessary part of the health system's offerings.

Ex-CEO Cyrus Massoumi claims his former Zocdoc colleagues coordinated a plan to replace him and prevented him from taking majority control; telehealth systems are experiencing a large uptick in targeted attacks.

The new services will be covered beyond the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, but the American Telemedicine Association said more needs to be done concerning remote patient monitoring.
