Telehealth: CMS Led the Way! Regulatory Relief The pivot to Telehealth was done without a clear understanding of the cost or compensation associated with the service. CMS was Quick to Lead The Future of Telehealth 1. Telehealth coverage expansion • Not going away 2. AWV inclusion • Commercial plans slower to respond a. Waiver on VSS • Lack of transparency in future 3. Inclusion of THV diagnosis for risk acuity • A current infrastructure mismatched to the delivery platform | All information in this deck is confidential – property of VillageMD 13
