In the third of a four-part telemedicine webinar series, participants will hear from lawyers who have built broad-reaching international telemedicine arrangements . The globalization of medical care has led to countless cross-border opportunities for U.S. and foreign providers alike looking to use telemedicine to tap into international expertise or capabilities or expanded patient populations. Along with these opportunities come the challenges of dealing with varying and sometimes contradictory regulatory frameworks, where issues like licensure, data privacy and security, product liability and standard of care take on a whole new meaning in the international context. Panelists in this webinar will present some of the primary considerations for building an international telemedicine platform and address some of the industry and regulatory efforts to advance the creation of a cross-border framework for the use of telemedicine.
