SRES 368 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A resolution supporting the designation of the week of September 17 through September 23, 2023, as "Telehealth Awareness Week".

SRES 368 designates the week of September 17-23, 2023, as "Telehealth Awareness Week" through a symbolic Senate resolution. It recognizes telehealth's role in expanding healthcare access, especially during the pandemic, and urges steps to raise public awareness, highlight telehealth resources, collect usage data, and promote continued access for all communities. The resolution does not create new laws or funding but formally acknowledges telehealth's importance. It directly affects public awareness efforts and stakeholders (patients, providers, policymakers) by designating a focused week for advocacy. The bill is procedural, with no binding policy changes.
