There’s a lot of different views on what the future of telehealth should be. I personally am the mother of a special needs child and typically travel two hours to get his care.

It’s actually been incredibly helpful, but that's only one patient’s use case.

If you could picture cybersecurity like a door, are four double bolts enough or is it five? The HIPAA security rule does give some latitude in terms of how you establish meeting your security requirements.
