About the Event
We are facing unprecedented times, and we may need to sacrifice the ability to meet in person to the extent possible to protect public health— and in some cases, to comply with state orders. With the advancements in communication and information technologies, veterinary medicine may have an opportunity to increase our use of telehealth tools to benefit animal health. This program will increase your knowledge of the state and federal regulatory landscape, explain the legal and ethical challenges that may arise with the use of telehealth, and provide tips to employ best practices for quality care and patient safety.Learning
Objectives:
1. Review the current state and federal requirements that apply to the practice of telehealth and telemedicine.
2. Define the qualifying characteristics of the veterinarian-client-patient relationship.
3. Demonstrate the steps by which the relationship can be established, maintained, terminated, and delegated.
4. Describe the scope of the relationship as applied to varying scenarios.
5. Formulate best practices when engaging in the use of telehealth tools in clinical medicine for patient health and safety.
