Telehealth – or the delivery of health care information and
services through communications technologies like high-speed
internet (also known as broadband) – can expand access to care,
improve the quality of care and reduce costs. These benefits may
be appealing to counties responsible for delivering public health
services.
Across California, counties are increasingly understanding the
importance of leveraging broadband (or high-speed Internet) to
attract new businesses, create jobs, improve health care and
education, and connect residents to new opportunities.
