Registration Open for Telehealth Un-Meeting<\/a><\/h2>\n

Telehealth<\/em><\/u>\u00a0<\/strong>is an emerging field.\u00a0Prior to the pandemic, telehealth was shown in several chronic conditions to improve access, reduce hospitalization rates, and have lower costs to the patient than traditional in person visits. These interventions are adaptable and have the potential to impact healthcare in communities which are medically underserved and under-resourced. Telehealth has also been shown to reduce health disparities among African Americans,\u00a0improve screenings of chronic conditions and improve access to mental health care in rural areas. During the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a dramatic increase in utilization of telehealth and there is an urgent need to identify the barriers and limitations of the current system to improve care delivery for patients.<\/p>\n

Careers in Clinical & Translational Research Metric Update<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The goal of the Careers in Clinical & Translational Research (CCTR)\u00a0metric is to measure and develop strategic management plans to advance the training and support of scientists to remain engaged in the scientific research workforce. In support of this goal, the CCTR Metric Quality Improvement Committee has worked to improve the reporting of the metric to meet the needs of the consortium and the hubs.<\/p>\n

The committee has updated the Operational Guideline to address current reporting challenges and to reflect newly identified measures. These changes will be presented during the Careers Metric Update webinar on\u00a0<\/span>Tuesday, April 6\u00a0at 3:00 pm ET<\/strong>. We encourage all hubs to register for this\u00a0<\/span>webinar<\/a>.<\/p>\n
