Although the public health emergency ended in Spring of 2023, clinicians will continue to use telehealth. Ensuring age-inclusive telehealth focuses on delivery of high-quality, high-value care to older adults. To ensure this bar is reached, clinicians should assess their telehealth programs to ensure that they are delivering age-inclusive care in that it accounts for older adults’ unique needs and is aligned with principles and guidelines for telehealth and aging.

Learning Objectives:

At the completion of this session, learners will be able to:

Understand the principles of age-inclusive telehealth
Identify telehealth practices that are not age-inclusive
Access and utilize national resources on age-inclusive telehealth use and implementation
