The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is asking for public comments on how to evaluate applications for the COVID-19 Telehealth Program, a program designed to help healthcare providers connect with patients during the pandemic. The FCC is looking to provide more funding for telehealth services, using funds allocated by Congress, and they want input on how to prioritize applications, especially for areas and providers that were heavily impacted by COVID-19. They plan to ensure that every state and the District of Columbia has at least one applicant that receives funding. Additionally, they propose changes to the application process and are considering prioritizing applicants who did not get funding in the first round. The goal is to improve the program while making funds available to those who need it most.
