Is this reciprocated to the patients? Will they get access to their own information too? Teladoc Quarter 1 revenue more than doubles. How are health systems integrating telehealth today? Where are they plugging it in? How are they pushing it forward? Henry Ford Health System launches a competition to tackle health disparities. And the results are in … nurses are very unhappy with EHR usability. How can we ensure that nurses are being represented in the EHR build so that it serves them better as a group?
