Sen. Young praises $5 million in telehealth support for Indiana health care providers

U.S. Senator Todd Young (R-Ind.) on Wednesday announced that 14 different Hoosier health care providers have received over $5 million in dedicated telehealth funding since April. This funding comes from the FCC’s COVID-19 Telehealth Program established by Congress and these dollars will help connect patients to their doctors from the comfort and safety of their homes.

“Telehealth will allow us to leverage the latest technology to serve more Hoosiers, lower costs, and provide better outcomes,” said Young. “That’s why I was proud to support this dedicated telehealth funding in the CARES Act and I will continue to advocate for even more funding for Indiana.”
