Virtual medicine expands across Wyoming as it bridges the state’s gaps in care.
CHEYENNE — Virtual medicine is changing the way physicians treat patients in Wyoming.
The expansion of telehealth also offers new opportunities to bridge the state’s gaps in care. Patients who must leave rural communities to see a specialist will soon be able to find this expertise at home.
Today, 24 of Wyoming’s 26 hospitals are outfitted with videoconferencing equipment, Dr. James Bush, chairman of the Wyoming Telehealth Consortium and Medicaid director for the Wyoming Department of Health, said.
