DESCRIPTION (PROVIDED BY APPLICANT): The 4th Annual Pediatric Telehealth Colloquium is a two day conference proposed to be held in between September 24-25 in Palm Springs, California. We aim to create a forum, which brings together medical providers, hospital administrators and information technology specialists to share, disseminate, and train others to develop and improve clinical telemedicine programs. The purpose of these pediatric clinical telemedicine programs is to increase access to care, reduce disparities in care, and increase the overall quality of care delivered to children in rural and underserved medical communities in a financially sustainable framework. Conference Objective: The conference will provide information to both the providers of telemedicine (hub sites) and users of telemedicine (remote sites), typically located in rural and underserved communities. The objectives of the two day conference are to: 1) provide an overview of the technical, administrative and clinical operations of a telemedicine program; 2) demonstrate how telemedicine can be used to assist in the care of pediatric patients in a variety of clinical settings; 3) disseminate information on the successful use of this technology to improve the access, quality and efficiency of care delivered to children; 4) provide the information required to ensure a self-sustaining, financially viable, successful telemedicine program; and 5) share current efforts on how to evaluate and research the impact of telemedicine on processes and outcomes of care; 6) demonstrate the use of telemedicine in continuing medical education across multiple institutions. Methods: We plan to achieve our objectives through interactive lectures, scientific sessions, as well as workshops on the five objectives. We will provide lectures; scientific sessions and workshops to help attendees better understand the technology of telemedicine and provide examples pediatric telemedicine care models in the outpatient and inpatient settings. Speakers will be selected from a range of experience and backgrounds, and will include clinicians, administrator and technicians from new and established programs, from hub and remote sites, and from academic and rural/underserved sites. We will also include scientific sessions that include platform presentations, targeted at novel and innovative uses of telemedicine, as well as poster presentations, targeted at clinical and programmatic issues in telemedicine. We will also create and provide the presentations and slides on DVDs and through websites at no additional cost for all interested providers across the United States. In this proposal for small conference grant we requests partial funding for the conference to subsidize registration for rural practitioners and practitioners working in medically underserved communities by offsetting our other conference costs, speaker fees for guest faculty to offset their out of pocket conference cost, and salary support and travel for the conference organizing committee. Key Words: 1) Pediatrics; 2) Telehealth and Telemedicine; 3) Rural Health; 4) Research; 5) Access to Health Care; 5) Primary Care Provider Education; 6) Healthcare Disparities; 7) Quality of Care and Improvement.

描述(由申请人提供)：第四届儿科远程健康研讨会是一个为期两天的会议，拟于9月24日至25日在加利福尼亚州棕榈泉举行。我们的目标是创建一个论坛，将医疗提供者、医院管理人员和信息技术专家聚集在一起，分享、传播和培训其他人，以开发和改进临床远程医疗计划。这些儿科临床远程医疗方案的目的是增加获得护理的机会，减少护理方面的差距，并在财政可持续的框架内提高向农村和服务不足的医疗社区的儿童提供的护理的整体质量。 会议目标：会议将向远程医疗提供者(中心地点)和远程医疗用户(远程地点)提供信息，远程医疗通常位于农村和服务不足的社区。为期两天的会议的目的是：1)概述远程医疗方案的技术、行政和临床操作；2)展示远程医疗如何在各种临床环境中用来协助儿科病人的护理；3)传播有关成功使用这项技术以改善向儿童提供的护理的机会、质量和效率的信息；4)提供所需的信息，以确保一个自我维持的、在财务上可行的、成功的远程医疗方案；以及5)分享关于如何评估和研究远程医疗对护理过程和结果的影响的当前努力；6)展示远程医疗在跨多个机构的继续医学教育中的使用。 方法：我们计划通过互动讲座、科学会议以及关于五个目标的研讨会来实现我们的目标。我们将提供讲座、科学会议和研讨会，帮助与会者更好地了解远程医疗技术，并提供门诊和住院环境中的儿科远程医疗护理模式的例子。演讲者将从一系列经验和背景中挑选出来，将包括来自新的和已建立的项目的临床医生、管理人员和技术人员，来自中心和远程站点，以及来自学术和农村/服务不足的站点。我们还将包括科学会议，其中包括针对远程医疗的新颖和创新用途的平台演示，以及针对远程医疗的临床和方案问题的海报演示。我们还将通过DVD和网站制作和提供演示文稿和幻灯片，全美所有感兴趣的提供商无需额外付费。 在这份小额会议赠款的提案中，我们要求为会议提供部分资金，通过抵消我们的其他会议费用、客座教员的演讲费来抵消他们自掏腰包的会议费用，以及会议组织委员会的工资支持和旅费，来补贴乡村医生和在医疗服务不足的社区工作的医生的注册。关键词：1)儿科；2)远程健康和远程医疗；3)农村健康；4)研究；5)获得医疗保健；5)初级保健提供者教育；6)医疗保健差距；7)保健质量和改进。
