Rural Health Reimagined: Telehealth as the New Front Door 
Transforming Rural Health with Timely, High-Quality Virtual Care

Wednesday, October 8, 2025   
1 - 2 p.m. Eastern; 12 - 1 p.m. Central; 10 - 11 a.m. Pacific   

Rural communities face unique health care challenges — from provider shortages and long travel distances to limited specialty access and aging populations. Innovative technologies like telehealth, remote patient monitoring and AI-driven tools are helping hospitals and health systems close these gaps and deliver high-quality care without major infrastructure investments.

Join us for a webinar exploring how partnerships with organizations such as Amwell support rural health innovation. Learn how Amwell’s comprehensive virtual care platform connects patients to a broad network of providers — including specialists not available locally — and integrates seamlessly into existing workflows. Solutions such as these can help rural hospitals and clinics to extend care delivery, reduce patient travel burdens, strengthen financial sustainability and improve population health outcomes.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how your organization can leverage virtual care to transform rural health.

Attendees Will Learn:
