چکیده
The United States’ health care system is currently undergoing the most dramatic transformation since the creation of Medicare. With the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) set to occur within the coming months, there continues to be a quest to seek out how to do more in ways that will utilize our limited resources more efficiently. A central element of the ACA is the Triple Aim, which is an approach aimed at optimizing the performance of the health care system. The three goals in the Triple Aim are the need to (1) improve health outcomes in the population (2) improve the quality of care, and (3) reduce the cost of health care. One method of obtaining one or more of these goals is telehealth.
