Vermont Telehealth Town Hall
Event Description
Join Northeast Telehealth Resource Center (NETRC) staff for an overview of key telehealth resources and information that are being made available to help Vermont based clinicians implement telehealth services quickly in response to COVID-19.
Implementation topics will include workflows, basics of assessing technology, and working with patients who are new to remote care. While the focus of this town hall is not on the details of reimbursement, NETRC will have a national policy update available and staff ready to speak to the latest Medicare developments. There will be a brief presentation followed by an extended Q&A period.
We know that many of you have a lot of telehealth questions, and will have more as time goes on. With this town hall we are kicking off twice weekly “Telehealth Virtual Office Hours” that will begin the week of April 6th to provide ongoing and timely technical assistance to clinicians and their staff. Details and a link for accessing those will be posted, along with a recording of this town hall on VPQHC’s website.

NE QIN QIO: Improving Sepsis Awareness & Education Training
Join the Vermont Branch of the New England QIN-QIO, on July 10 or July 16 from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, for a free educational program designed to help you understand the signs and symptoms of sepsis. This 2-hour "train the trainer" program for community providers will also help you identify clinical prompts that can facilitate earlier identification of sepsis. All attendees will receive a toolkit of resources and education materials on the early detection of sepsis to bring back to your facility.
Each year, over 1.7 million adults develop sepsis in the United States. One in three patients who die in a hospital have sepsis, and sepsis hospitalizations account for a higher proportion of unplanned 30-day readmissions than hospitalizations for heart attack, heart failure, COPD, and pneumonia. Despite these statistics, only 1% of Americans can identify symptoms of sepsis.
If you have any questions, contact me at gcolgan@qualidigm.org. We look forward to seeing you at one of these trainings!
Who Should Attend
Community members and care providers (RNs, LNAs, MAs) from nursing homes, home health agencies, EMS, hospitals, and senior living centers.
