UH Telemedicine Proposal

Abstract

The purpose of the University of Hawaii Telemedicine Project (UHTP) is to assess and establish an effective telemedicine curriculum uniquely tailored for the training of military healthcare personnel. To accomplish this task, a clinical telemedicine service was established such that a hub of physician specialists in Honolulu is available to primary care providers and patients in rural and/or remote clinics; and from this experience a web-based educational curriculum to teach military and other health care providers how to use telemedicine was designed. This Project was supported by a two-year Cooperative Agreement between the University of Hawaii John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM) and the Department of Defense, United States Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity, Telemedicine and Advanced Technology Research Center (TATRC).
