Telehealth continues to play an important role in improving healthcare access across rural communities, helping providers expand services, reduce barriers to care, and better meet the needs of medically underserved populations. This webinar will introduce the HRSA-funded Pulse Telehealth Resource Center (PulseTRC), which now serves Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma as the region’s federally designated telehealth resource center, continuing the work previously supported through the Heartland Telehealth Resource Center.
Participants will learn how PulseTRC supports healthcare professionals, policymakers, and community organizations through free research-based resources designed to strengthen telehealth and virtual care delivery. The session will provide an overview of available tools and services, including technical assistance, educational webinars, policy and billing guidance, technology resources, virtual health access mapping, and telehealth best practices. Attendees will also explore how telehealth can improve healthcare access, increase operational efficiency, and support sustainability in rural communities.
