ATA Telemedicine Standards& Guidelines InitiativesATA is working in partnership with the National Institute ofStandards and Technology (NIST) to develop standards andguidelines and to establish quality assurance measures for thedelivery of healthcare using telecommunications technology.ATA’s Standards and Guidelines Committee sets overallpolicy for these initiatives, including the establishment ofwork groups to develop standards in specialty areas, andhas developed a set of common terms and definitions aswell as core standards for telemedicine operations.Standards and guidelines initiativesinclude two components:■ Development of recommendations for specific practiceareas including technical, clinical and administrative aspects■ Education, training and recognition that provide assurancethat the recommendations are understood and arebeing incorporated into healthcare practicesATA standards and guidelines for telemedicine are developedby separate work groups in various specific areas.Each work group is composed of experts from clinical institutions,the private sector, government and other relatedstakeholder organizations. Representation from membersof ATA’s Special Interest Groups, relevant medical societies,technology groups and the international communityare critical to the success of these efforts.Diabetic retinopathy and teledermatology practice guidelinesfor telemedicine have been developed and published.Currently, telemental health and telepresenting workgroups are actively developing standards and guidelinesfor these two specific areas.To learn more about the ATA standards and guidelines initiativesand how you can become involved, please contact ATA.

American Telemedicine Association2008 Federal Policy PrioritiesTelemedicine: Bringing Medical Care to People — When and Where They Need ItABOUT ATAFederal policy shouldallow consumers,patients and health careinstitutions to realize thebenefits of telemedicine.ATA is committed tobringing telemedicine intothe mainstream of thepractice of healthcare.These federal policypriorities focus onproviding the necessaryfinancial resources fortelemedicine and oneliminating other barriersto further deployment.Expand Medicare Reimbursementto Include:■ All remaining institutions eligible toparticipate in Medicare but not currentlyeligible to be reimbursed fortelemedicine/telehealth services■ All remaining services currentlycovered by Medicare but not eligibleto be reimbursed when providedvia telemedicine/telehealth■ Medical services that are providedusing store-and-forward technology■ All health care providers who areeligible for Medicare reimbursement■ All geographic areas so telemedicineis not limited to rural areasCongress and CMS should encouragethe use of home telehealth as a recognizedand reimbursable component inthe provision of home health careunder Medicare’s prospective paymentsystem (PPS), and should providereimbursement for the cost of deployingdevices and related technology.Medicare should change its rules toallow existing patients to have vitalsigns monitored remotely instead oftraveling to the provider’s office.Expand Support for Universal Servicesand Encourage Interconnections ofRemote Healthcare Networks—All carriersof telecommunications services,regardless of mode of delivery, shouldcontribute to the Federal UniversalService Fund. The current rural healthprogram should be reworked to simplifythe application and administrativeprocess and should support thedeployment of wireless networks withinall eligible health facilities as a costeffectiveapproach to expand accessto broadband services to the desktopof each physician and nurse. Any suchchanges should protect the supportbeing provided to current approvedfacilities. Federal support of networkbridging between and among the 200telemedicine networks that exist in theU.S. will serve as an important componentin expanding healthcare services,improving medical education and collaboration,and functioning as a foundationfor the development of reachbacknetworks.Promote Health Information TechnologyPrograms and Their Coordination withTelemedicine—Legislation that providesfinancial support for increased utilizationof interoperable information servicesand technologies by healthcareinstitutions, especially the developmentand implementation of systemwideelectronic records, mustcontinue to be introduced and realized.Networks already established for thedelivery of remote healthcare shouldbe used to facilitate the developmentof regional technology applications.Piggybacking on already-establishednetworks for providing clinical care, aswell as using already-establishedsecure, high bandwidth networks forother health technology applications,is both efficacious and efficient.Resolve Legal Barriers toTelemedicine—Congress and theAdministration should work throughsuch groups as the National GovernorsAssociation, the National Conferenceof State Legislatures, and theFederation of State Medical Boards tocraft an interstate agreement that will:■ Encourage medical licensure cooperationamong states■ Facilitate the exchange of informationregarding investigations andadverse actions among states■ Promote compliance with lawsgoverning the practice of medicinein each state■ Invest states with the authority tohold physicians accountable formeeting all state practice lawsThe federal government should developfinancial assistance to encouragethe development of the agreement, andshould develop financial and regulatoryincentives that would be madeavailable for each state that adoptsthe agreement.The efforts of the National Council ofState Boards of Nursing to implementa nationwide set of mutual recognitionlaws within an interstate compact forthe practice of nursing using telemedicineshould be supported.6 ■ A T A 2008 ■ SEATTLE WASHINGT ON USA ■ WWW.AMERICANTELEMED.ORG

State requirements to mandate paymentsfor telemedicine servicesshould be accompanied with requirementsthat insurance carriers providemalpractice coverage for those sameservices, and no federal or state lawshould prohibit the ability of telemedicineprograms to provide prescriptiondrugs to patients.Institutionalize the Use ofTelemedicine for EmergencyPreparedness and Response—Publicpolicy should support the use oftelemedicine to help prepare andrespond to large emergencies, whethercaused by natural disaster or terroristact. Such telecommunications connectionscan provide instant access toresources at the nation’s tertiary caremedical centers regardless of location.Federal emergency management regulationsshould be amended to integratethe practice of telemedicinewithin Federal Disaster MedicalAssistance Teams.Support Federal Programs andInitiatives that Advance theDeployment of Telemedicine andTechnology Services—The advancementof programs and technologiesthat improve patient outcomes, addefficiency to health systems, and helpalleviate the disparity in health careresources can be accomplishedthrough leveraging appropriate publicresources supporting telemedicine.Full funding for such programs is vitalas the nation’s healthcare systemcopes with a crisis of cost and quality.ATA Policy CommitteeChairNeal Neuberger, CISSPPresidentHealth Tech Strategies, LLCMcLean, VAMichelle E.

A key componentto making systems scalable and reliableis that they be built uponproven technologies that can somehowbe made to be interoperable.Some “pre-wired” solutions alreadyexist in the marketplace today, but inorder to achieve the vision of connectedhealth, these solutions, andmany more, must be made to extendand interoperate. This session willexamine in depth the emerging standardsthat can support personaltelehealth. Key technologies to bediscussed include: USB, BlueTooth,the IEEE 11073 data formatting standards,HL7 and more. Each of thesewill be explored within the largercontext of an interoperable frameworkthat will enable extensible,reliable and scalable solutions forconnected health.Moderator:Douglas McClure, MIMCorporate Manager, Centerfor Connected Health,Partners HealthCareBoston, MAFaculty:Douglas P.
