Innovation comes in many areas and compliance professionals need to not only be ready for it but embrace it. One of those areas is telehealth and telemedicine. My guest in this episode is Dr. Laura Purdy, a true evangelist for both telehealth and telemedicine.  Telemedicine in the Army has become crucial in providing healthcare to remote and deployed soldiers.
