IAMRA Webinar: Telehealth and Virtual Care - COVID and Beyond July 28, 2022 The emergence of COVID-19 has resulted in a rapid expansion of the use of technology to deliver health services. Virtual services such as telehealth played an important role in the pandemic planning and response. The rapid integration of telehealth was an innovative and necessary solution to ensure the ongoing delivery of healthcare. However, with such rapid advancement a need has emerged for increased education, quality assurance, protocols and monitoring. During this webinar panel members discussed lessons learned through the pandemic and issues that regulators need to pay attention to, as telehealth and virtual care are embedded in the ongoing delivery of healthcare services.
This webinar was facilitated by Mrs. Joan Simeon, CEO of the Medical Council of New Zealand. Speakers (in order of introduction):
