<strong>Telemedicine</strong> standards & guidelines and Quality assurance<strong>Telemedicine</strong> practice guidelines, standardsand quality assurance programs improvepatient care and safety and accelerate theadoption of uniform practices in the deliveryof remote medical care.<strong>ATA</strong>’s initiative provides quality assurancemeasures that payers, providers, consumersand regulators will rely upon to expandaccess, improve quality and reduce costs inthe delivery of health care.Practice Guidelinesfor Teledermatology December 2007Quality Healthcare Through Telecommunications TechnologyTelehealth Practice Recommendationsfor Diabetic Retinopathy May 2004Quality Healthcare Through Telecommunications TechnologyClinical Guidelines for TelepathologyQuality Healthcare Through Telecommunications TechnologyMay 1999The absense of adequate clinical, technical andadministrative guidelines and standards hasbeen a persistent barrier in the deploymentof telemedicine. Multiple proprietary systemsand wide variations in the execution ofremote clinical and healthcare services havedelayed the realization of telemedicine’sfull potential. In a report published in 2004,the U.S. Department of Commerce stated:“Progress in the development and adoption ofindustry-wide standards (for telemedicine) willcontribute to resolving interoperability issuesin the long term.” (Innovation, Demand andInvestment in Telehealth, U.S. Department ofCommerce, February 6, 2004)There is an array of industry initiativesand governmental regulations related tointeroperability and electronic technology usedin providing remote health care (DICOM, HL7,Continua, FDA, etc..) However, administrators,clinicians, consumers and payers of remotehealth services also need assurances thatthe services delivered follow appropriatepathways. The equipment used must also besuitable for the services being provided. Thiscan only be met through the development ofroad maps in the selection of products andimplementation of uniform clinical procedures.Over ten years ago, <strong>ATA</strong> began developingframeworks and processes for creating suchroad maps. The first product of this effort,Clinical Guidelines for Telepathology, waspublished in 1999 and set forth agreed uponprocedures for the practice of telepathology.Since that time, <strong>ATA</strong>, in partnership withNIST, HHS, representatives from medicalsocieties and other involved parties, hassuccessfully created similar practice guidelinesfor the remote assessment of diabeticretinopathy, practice of teledermatologyand video-based telemental health services.Each set is based on a thorough review ofbest practices and documented research andis guided by multidisciplinary work groups.Other target areas include: telepresenting,telerehabilitation, and home telehealth/remote monitoring. <strong>ATA</strong> is now working onmeasures to ensure these practice guidelinesare understood and used by providers andadopted by payers and regulatory bodies.To learn more about the <strong>ATA</strong> Standardsand Guidelines Initiatives and how you canbecome involved, please contact <strong>ATA</strong> or visitthe Standards and Guidelines page on the<strong>ATA</strong> website.2007-2008<strong>ATA</strong> Standardsand GuidelinesCommitteeChairNina M.

public policy in aTa<strong>ATA</strong>’s public policy agenda focuses on bringing telemedicineinto the mainstream practice of healthcare, providing necessary financialresources and eliminating barriers to deployment.<strong>ATA</strong>’s Policy PrioritiesExpand Medicare Reimbursement to Includen <strong>Telemedicine</strong> in urban areasn Remote monitoring and home telehealthn Store and forward servicesn Remote ICU, stroke and other specific servicesn Other services, providers and institutionsalready covered by MedicareExpand Support for Universal Services andEncourage Interconnections of RemoteHealthcare Networksn All carriers of telecommunications services,regardless of mode of delivery, should contributeto the Federal Universal Service Fund.n The Rural Health Pilot <strong>Program</strong> should betransformed into an ongoing component ofuniversal service, include flexibility in its supportfor administrative and healthcare relatedservices and encourage wireless networksas well as new forms of healthcare deliveryproviders.Promote Health Information Technology<strong>Program</strong>s and Their Coordination with<strong>Telemedicine</strong>n Public investments in health informationtechnology should build on and supportexisting telemedicine networks.n Health technology investments must extendbeyond the walls of hospitals and other healthinstitutions and reflect the growing mobilityand diversity in healthcare delivery.n The emphasis of health information technologydesign should be on the ability to have apatient’s complete medical history availableto both the patient and the health providerat the time and place of need. This requiresstandards regarding the flow of information, theintegration of diverse databases and the ability toaccess and integrate salient data bites at differentlocations.Resolve Licensure Barriers for <strong>Telemedicine</strong>n Encourage the development of cross-state andagreements including financial and regulatoryincentives that would be made available foreach state that adopts the agreement.n Facilitate the exchange of information regardinginvestigations and adverse actions among states.n States should adopt the interstate compactdeveloped by the National Council of StateBoards of Nursing regarding the practice ofnursing using telemedicine.n International agreements regarding crossborderuse of telemedicine should start toconsider the same principles.Resolve Malpractice and Prescribing Barriersn States should require insurance carriers to providemalpractice coverage for telemedicine providers,and no federal or state law should prohibit theability of legitimate telemedicine programs toprovide prescription drugs to patients.n Institutionalize the use of telemedicine foremergency preparedness and responsen Public policy should support the use oftelemedicine to help prepare and respond tolarge emergencies, whether caused by naturaldisaster or terrorist act.n Federal emergency management regulationsshould be amended to integrate the practiceof telemedicine within Federal Disaster MedicalAssistance Teams.Support Federal <strong>Program</strong>s and Initiativesthat Advance the Deployment of<strong>Telemedicine</strong> and Technology Servicesn The advancement of programs andtechnologies that improve patient outcomes,add efficiency to health systems, and helpalleviate the disparity in health care resourcescan be accomplished through leveragingappropriate public resources supportingtelemedicine. Full funding for such programsis vital as the nation’s healthcare system copeswith a crisis of cost and quality.Stimulus Bill andHealth ReformBoost <strong>Telemedicine</strong>Billions of federal dollars arebeing released into the economyover the next few months whichwill bolster the expansion ofhealth information technology,telemedicine and telehealth. Theprospect for industry growth isunprecedented as funds are madeavailable through an array federalagencies and programs. <strong>ATA</strong> standsready to help members stay on topof the latest developments and takeadvantage of the opportunities thatthis legislation affords.As the nation also tackles healthcare reform, there will be many moreopportunities to advance the useof telemedicine and telehealth. <strong>ATA</strong>will continue to be active on CapitolHill and before the Administrationpromoting <strong>ATA</strong>’s priorities.6 <strong>ATA</strong> <strong>2009</strong> / LAS VEGAS NEVADA USA / WWW.AMERICANTELEMED.ORG
