The Telehealth Program is a new state program in the Office of Health Data and Analytics dedicated to assisting telehealth providers by promoting, advocating and supporting telehealth adoption across the commonwealth. 

The program provides a repository of information and resources including state telehealth laws, policies and guidelines; answers to frequently asked questions; educational materials and webinars; statewide telehealth services directory; publications and journals; links to associations, organizations and professional licensure boards and other state and national programs and resources.

The program is one of five business units, along with the Cabinet Privacy Program, the Kentucky Health Benefit Exchange, the Kentucky Health Information Exchange (KHIE) and analytics for health and human services. Telehealth has the ability to work with the Cabinet Privacy Program dealing with HIPAA policies and procedures around the proper use and security for telehealth; with KHIE for providers to access clinical comprehensive care documents for telehealth services and with the analytics division to measure the value and effectiveness of telehealth.
