<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:8.0pt"><b><u>Telehealth/Telemedicine Information (See attached PDF)</u></b>: We have received some questions regarding the purchase of equipment eligibility for telehealth/telemedicine for Public Assistance. The Medical
Care Policy does not list telehealth/telemedicine as an eligible activity and the “emergency and inpatient clinical care” is facility-specific and says it is eligible “in a” primary medical care facility and/or “in a” temporary or expanded medical facility. <span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">The
purchase of laptops and VPN’s would be increased operating costs under PA.</span> The following resources are identified for telehealth/telemedicine and are compiled with publicly available information or with information provided by sources that are publicly
obtainable. The user should always directly consult the provider of a potential resource for current program information and to verify the applicability of a particular program. Additionally, if asked, you may want to point to the other CARES Act funding resources
