Virginians should have access to telemedicine.  Especially Medicaid patients.  

Virginia Medicaid patients using telemedicine will have better access to their physician and specialists.  This will help elderly or medically challenged patients have better distance management for healthcare.  This is even more important for patients that are in remote areas of the Commonwealth being 1-2 hours away from medical care.

This will save Virginia taxpayers.  Medicaid patients can use telemedicine for consults and basic health needs.  Which saves the cost of patients using a more expensive health portal such as an emergency room.
