Dr. John Graham, President and Cofounder, NC Telehealth Network Association (NCTNA)
Dr. John discussed work that NCTNA has been doing to coordinate the NC Healthcare Broadband Coalition. The Coalition is made up NC healthcare associations that represent most of NC's healthcare providers, and its role is to make sure NC healthcare providers know about BEAD funding and have a voice at the state level in the allocation of these and other broadband funds. Dr. Graham talked about some of the Coalition projects and focused on a recent digital equity project that increases telehealth access in collaboration with libraries.
