Telemedicine institute trains doctors, helps patients in remote areas

If you live in rural Arizona, and you need specialized medical care, it is either impossible to find, extremely expensive to get, and/or very time consuming to get to.


That's changing, and that's a good thing.


The University of Arizona College of Medicine’s Arizona Telemedicine Program thru the T-Health Institute is beginning to reach all parts of the state. 


Presently, the only stumbling block is the lack of ubiquitous broadband.  Once that is in place, three positive changes can fall into place:  Telehealth, eLearning and rural economic development.
