In this episode, Tyler Pieron with Coming Home Well talks with Dr. Adam Darkins, a physician who spearheaded the Veteran’s Administration’s efforts to begin to use telehealth to help veterans achieve better outcomes, increase the quality of care and provide better access. Beginning in the 1990s, Dr. Darkins began developing what is now one of the largest and most effective telehealth programs in the country, with a focus on ensuring patient access and increasing accessibility regardless of geographical location. Since the beginning of the COIVD-19 pandemic, the use of telehealth services for routine care has exploded, but Dr. Darkins shares how the VA has been laying the foundation of ensuring veterans can receive care no matter where they are for decades.
