Increasing Health Equity in Your Community

Virtual care has been well documented as a less expensive and convenient care
option that delivers both quality and patient satisfaction. When used appropriately,
virtual care improves patient health and reduces costs, making care more equitable
and accessible to the 89% of U.S. adults who own a smartphone, including those
in medically underserved communities. As organizations move beyond adoption and into an optimization phase, they are making adjustments to their telehealth offerings from experience gained with both technology and the program administration of virtual care.
This white paper discusses how organizations can harness the potential of virtual care for greater health equity and improved access to care with embedded language services, as well as the advances in technology that are facilitating these changes.
