Register today for the Telehealth Technology Summit
Join HTRC in New Orleans for the Telehealth Technology Summit on December 12-13. The summit will feature a technology showcase hosted by the National Telehealth Technology Assessment Center (TTAC). The showcase provides an opportunity for you to try out a variety of telemedicine devices and systems.
Throughout the event, attendees will participate in hands-on demonstrations led by TTAC Director, Doris Barta and Telehealth Technology Specialist, Jordan Berg.
“The Showcase is designed for participant interaction," said Barta. "We look forward to the opportunity to discuss technology with individuals who are new to telehealth or planning an expansion to their current program.”
TTAC, located in Anchorage, Alaska, offers a variety of services in the area of technology assessment and assists consumers with selecting appropriate technologies for their telehealth program. The
TTAC website
provides free toolkits for recently assessed products and apps.
According to Berg, “Selecting the right equipment is a process that considers the needs and goals of your telemedicine program. Technology assessment includes consideration of the ability of users, types of services and costs. In New Orleans, we will walk participants through a seven-step process designed to assess technological needs of any telemedicine program.”
In addition to the hands-on technology component, you'll learn everything you need to know about vendor contracting; FDA device regulation and certification; FDA software as a medical device and reimbursement opportunities for remote patient monitoring.
The summit is a collaborative effort of HRSA-funded Telehealth Resource Centers, including Southeastern Telehealth Resource Center, South Central Telehealth Resource Center, Heartland Telehealth Resource Center, TexLa Telehealth Resource Center and the National Telehealth Resource Center for Technology Assessment.
The early bird registration rate of $150 is still available until November 15!
