Grant Overview
Tennessee's digital health initiatives target measurable increases in telehealth utilization within counties designated as Health Professional Shortage Areas by the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration. The state's 2019 telehealth parity law creates specific reimbursement pathways that programs must reference when projecting visit volume increases.
Target Outcomes in Tennessee Programs track metrics such as completed telehealth encounters per 1,000 residents in counties with fewer than 35 primary care physicians per 100,000 people. Data collection must align with Tennessee Department of Health reporting formats used for the state's annual health disparities report.
Why these outcomes matter in Tennessee Rural counties east of the Cumberland Plateau and west of the Tennessee River exhibit chronic disease management gaps documented in state hospital discharge data. Increased telehealth visits correlate with reduced emergency department utilization for ambulatory care sensitive conditions in these regions, per Tennessee Hospital Association analyses.
Implementation approach requires platform integration with existing Tennessee eHealth Collaborative certified electronic health record systems. Applicants submit detailed user adoption projections segmented by age cohort, using 2020 Census data showing higher proportions of residents over age 65 in targeted counties. Success benchmarks include quarterly submission of de-identified encounter data to the Tennessee Department of Health Office of Rural Health.
