Part 1 HITECH ACT of 2009 Do you believe HITECH Act was a good strategy for the United States for improving patient safety, quality, population health, and cost? Support your response with the evidence? Part 2 Case Study Task Questions What Would You Do? More than 30 telehealth projects in locations from West Virginia to Guam are receiving funding through the US Department of Agriculture’s Distance Learning and Telemedicine. Of the 65 grants awarded across 34 states, totaling more than $20 million, 31 grants valued at $8.6 million were telehealth related, with the rest going to educational services. An example of a typical grant is an award of $750,000 that will enable the university to equip telemedicine carts with videoconferencing and cloud-based image sharing in more than 70 rural health care facilities in 46 countries (Wicklund, 2014). How would you use the $750k to enhance access to rural areas using telehealth? What specific steps would you take to ensure the success of the project? Discuss the possible impact and return on investment (ROI)?
