<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">Greetings,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">The Telehealth Alliance of Oregon (TAO) would like to announce the completion of a mapping project that was funded by the Northwest Regional Telehealth Resource Center. NRTRC received Cares Grant funding from HRSA. NRTRC awarded part of the funds to organizations in each TRC state. In Oregon the funding was awarded to TAO. TAO used part of its award to contract with ORH to create a map of telehealth activity in the Rural Health Centers in Oregon. ORH had successfully mapped the telehealth activities in Oregon's Critical Access Hospitals.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">These two maps, which represent hundreds of hours of work by Rose Locklear, one of ORH's Field Services Managers who specializes in telehealth. Both of these maps are available on the ORH website.
