which aims to build a cost-benefit model on how different
types of telemedicine interactions lead to efficient utilization
of health care
and transportation resources
- This project
recognizes the AT&T Center as an emerging
leader in telemedicine research
- The study
is a collaborative effort between CITL researchers and researchers
