Like all employers, our team at WebRTC.ventures is monitoring the COVID-19 situation closely. Fortunately, [our team already works remotely](https://webrtc.ventures/2020/03/working-remotely-and-telecommuting/) in most cases, and we work remotely with most of our clients. But through [our work in telehealth](https://webrtc.ventures/telehealth-solutions/), we are also very attuned to the benefits of providing remote medical care whenever possible.

We’ve recently launched our SaaS telehealth platform [SimplyDoc](https://simplydoc.com/) as an extension of our work in telehealth, and the coronavirus is only making that work more important. On [SimplyDoc’s blog](https://simplydoc.com/blog/), we posted about how emergency funding just passed by the US Congress will make it [easier to conduct telehealth visits under Medicare](https://simplydoc.com/2020/03/09/coronavirus-medicare-waiver-for-telemedicine/). This is an important change that I hope outlasts the spread of the coronavirus.

Whether it’s this public health crisis or one in the future, your healthcare organization should be considering contingency plans that utilize patient-focused telehealth. Our team at [SimplyDoc](https://simplydoc.com/) can set you up with a SaaS-based solution for any size medical clinic or mental health practice, or we can build you a [completely custom solution](https://webrtc.ventures/telehealth-solutions/) for you here at WebRTC.ventures. [**Contact our team**](https://webrtc.ventures/contact/) today for more information.
