Telemedicine
 

Medicaid patients should have access to telemedicine like all Virginians.  This is a better option for patients that live far from medical care or those Medicaid patients that can't afford transportation.  Also, some patients are too sick to travel, so this remote technology would give them better well-being in the comfort of their home.
