Thank you for the steps you have taken thus far to ensure digital health and health IT can be fully leveraged to detect, treat, and prevent the spread of COVID-19. We commend you on the steps taken thus far, including allowing the Secretary of Health & Human Services (HHS) to waive Medicare telehealth reimbursement restrictions for the remainder of the COVID-19 public health emergency.
