Veterans Affairs officials will look at including patients’ access to telehealth services as part of their eligibility for outside care programs, a move that could dramatically change what community care options are available for veterans in coming years.

I live in KY. I use the Cincinnati OH., VA. My PCP is at the Cleveland OH., VA. Today I had a face to face check up by video. Not only that but my nurse put a stethoscope on the regular places and by technology, my PCP could hear every heartbeat to the gas moving through my intestines, weird huh?

I'm kind of concerned about telehealth appointments. I don't think they oftentimes tell the full story about what may be wrong with someone.
