Ultimately, whatever @CMSGov is doing to promote #telehealth, it’s really all about one thing: To foster #innovation & protect & strengthen the #Medicare program in order to deliver on its promise to our elderly & disabled populations. #HospitalSummit2018

For 2019, under our final rules, #Medicare patients receiving home dialysis will be able to receive their monthly clinical assessments via telehealth, from their homes. #TelehealthPolicyForum #HospitalSummit2018

We will also be paying for virtual consultations between physicians, and evaluation of remote pre-recorded images and video. #HospitalSummit2018

For the very first time, starting in January, #Medicare will pay for virtual check-ins, meaning patients can connect with their doctors by phone or video chat.

Every year we’re adding new services to the list of what can be covered by #Medicare via #telehealth. This year, that includes prolonged preventive services, which includes wellness exams for patients with complex needs. #HospitalSummit2018

Technology is also connecting patients to their doctors, even outside of the hospital setting, with devices like new glucose monitors, which we just approved, that can continually monitor vital signs and relay them to a practitioner. #TelehealthPolicyForum #HospitalSummit2018

#Telehealth is part of @CMSGov’s larger vision of moving to a system that is value based, that rewards value over volume by bringing the best to patients. #HospitalSummit2018

For those impacted by the #wildfires in California, @CMSGov is temporarily waiving or modifying certain #Medicare, #Medicaid, & #CHIP requirements, enrollment opportunities for healthcare access & ensuring dialysis patients obtain critical services. https://go.cms.gov/2PWP881 

In response to the public health emergency declared by @SecAzar, @CMSGov has taken several actions to provide immediate relief to those impacted by the #wildfires in California & ensure healthcare providers, facilities, & suppliers are able to provide continued access to care.

This administration is committed to ensuring that seniors are getting the best deal possible in all therapeutic classes, including in the protected classes. #StrengtheningMedicare #BPC4

The IPI model would, for the very first time, introduce competition in #Medicare #PartB. Now, in #PartD, private plans are already negotiating with manufacturers, & plans are keeping premiums down. #StrengtheningMedicare #BPC4
