DETROIT, MI, UNITED STATES, April 25, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — I360 Healthcare want to help you and partner with you on a unique funding opportunity with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) COVID-19 Telehealth Program.
The FCC COVID-19 Telehealth Program has already administered $200 million in funding appropriated by Congress as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. The program was enacted to support efforts of health care providers to address COVID-19 by providing telecommunications services, information services, and devices necessary to enable the provision of telehealth services during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Over 100 health centers received telehealth funding to support initiatives like network upgrades, purchasing videoconference equipment for patients and practitioners, and smartphones for telehealth visits. To build on the success of the first round of funding, Congress appropriated an additional $249.95 million to support Round 2 of the COVID-19 Telehealth Program. The Round 2 application opens April 29, 2021 12pm – May 6, 2021 12pm ET.
On Monday, April 26th @ 4:00pm–5:00pm ET, the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) will host a webinar on how to submit a successful application for Round 2 of the FCC’s COVID-19 Telehealth Program.
