Telehealth Provider Survey
One of the goals of Heartland Rural Health Network is to create a public awareness telemedicine campaign. To that end, we need to identify the Telemedicine and Telehealth programs, platforms, and specialties being offered and utilized across our service area. As such, we are in the final stages of creating a Telehealth/Telemedicine Provider Survey that we will be sending out to all identified providers in Charlotte, DeSoto, Hardee, Highlands, and Polk Counties. Please help us to ensure that these surveys are completed by the appropriate person so that we can start the process of helping to promote those Telehealth/Telemedicine services in our areas.
If you have any questions or to ensure your organization/practice gets a copy of the survey, please email support@hrhn.org. Once the survey is live, a link to it will be posted below.
