Telehealth Awareness Week

Since 2016, the SCTA has hosted Telehealth Awareness Week (TAW) in South Carolina with the goals of increasing telehealth awareness and advocating for expanded access to telehealth services.

Telehealth is a rapidly evolving service that greatly expands the methods by which care is delivered to patients. TAW engages communities across the state in thoughtful conversations about how telehealth can be used to more effectively provide medical care to as many South Carolinians as possible.

TAW is held every autumn and generally encompasses a series of events and awareness campaigns from collaborating partners across the state including health systems, telehealth support partners, legislators, health care providers.   

TAW 2022

2022 marks the second annual National Telehealth Awareness week, thanks to the leadership of the American Telemedicine Association (ATA).

South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster recently released the Governor's Proclamation (PDF), officially declaring September 18 through 24, 2022 as Telehealth Awareness Week in South Carolina.
