In this episode, Justin Smulison is joined by a guest who has her finger on the pulse of this area to discuss the risks and benefits of telehealth and telemedicine.   Jennifer Schoenthal is an Underwriter for Miscellaneous Medical and Life Sciences at Beazley. She has vast experience in risk and insurance in telemedicine, has 20 years of experience as an Underwriter, holds P&amp;C licenses in over 15 States, and is a nationally recognized speaker and writer.   Justin and Jennifer virtually sit down together to discuss the risks and benefits of telemedicine and telehealth and how it impacts employers, employees, insureds, and insurers. Jennifer shares how she has seen the telemedicine sector evolve over time, the risks that telehealth and telemedicine providers face, how telehealth and telemedicine are changing the landscape of insurance coverage, and much, much more.
