Landscape<\/strong>: The use of digital health tools like telehealth, AI, and remote monitoring is increasing the access to care and enhancing clinical decision-making, according to Randi Seigel.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>COVID-19 Impact<\/strong>: The pandemic significantly accelerated the adoption of telehealth services, as lawmakers introduced temporary flexibilities that later transitioned into permanent regulations.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Uncertain Telehealth Future<\/strong>: Seigel cautions that without congressional action, the temporary telehealth flexibilities introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic may expire, forcing providers to revert to stricter pre-pandemic regulations and threatening the sustainability of telehealth services.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Government Payment Models<\/strong>: Government payment models, especially Medicare, play a significant role in determining how digital health technologies are adopted by health care providers and reimbursed by insurers.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Challenges in AI Regulation<\/strong>: The rapid evolution of AI regulation presents challenges, with states enacting diverse requirements and significant federal action in the form of executive orders despite no direct regulatory laws yet being passed by Congress.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Career Advice for Legal Students<\/strong>: Seigel advises law students interested in health law and technology to focus on administrative, health, and technology-related coursework, gain practical experience, and build a network with professionals in the field.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Regulating Digital Health Technologies | The Regulatory
