Florida TaxWatch: Telemedicine Can Save Florida $1 Billion Annually

Submitted by Kevin Derby on March 6, 2014 - 8:21am

Florida TaxWatch released a report on Thursday which showed increased use of telemedicine would save Floridians more than $1 billion a year.

"The opportunity costs of not investing in telemedicine are too high for the state of Florida and its taxpayers," said Dominic Calabro, the president and CEO of Florida TaxWatch, on Thursday. "Florida needs to expand telemedicine to not only improve health care outcomes, but to provide care at a lower cost to Floridians."
