Advocacy

CTN is uniquely positioned to advocate for California’s rural and safety net clinics and hospitals.  CTN has connected over 300 clinics and hospitals and maintains ongoing working relationships with clinical and technical professionals at each location.  CTN continues to make sure the voices of rural and medically underserved communities are heard by educating federal and State elected officials and policymakers on key broadband technology and telehealth issues and developments.  In addition, OCHIN, CTN’s parent company, aims to translate clinical research, collaborations and robust data and analytics into policies and positions that improve access to care and health outcomes for vulnerable patients in underserved communities.
