Abstract:
The data collection tool extracts valuable information on services provided that are critical to the mission of HRSA and provides valid and complete information about methods used to measure the impact of the telehealth program on improving access to healthcare services for residents of communities that did not have such services locally before the program. Projects are able to measure the impact of the telehealth program on hospitalization rates and emergency room visit rates per year for patients receiving disease management services for diabetes, congestive heart failure, stroke and other chronic diseases, as well for patients receiving home care/home monitoring services. Projects can measure impact of the telehealth program on controlling blood glucose levels in diabetic patients and can assure the impact of the telehealth program improving efficiency of health care. In addition, projects also measure the impact of the telehealth program on reducing medical errors and collect data to measure other clear outcomes.

Short Statement:
This is an on-going collection of information. The Telehealth Network Grant Program supports established and/or existing telehealth networks with extensive experience in providing major clinical services to rural communities throughout the U.S. Many of these telehealth networks have several network member partners (i.e. spoke sites) that are committed to the grant project. As a result, each spoke site is required to report as a respondent. The number of active spoke sites committed to the grant project fluctuates from year to year and, therefore, in the "Estimates of Annualized Hour and Cost Burden", the "Number of Respondents" was increased from "667" to "700" to better reflect this fluctuation.
