The article was featured in Michigan Medical Law Report, 7 M.L.R. 25 (Summer 2011).

The purpose of the revision was to make the use of telemedicine a more practical option for hospitals and CAHs by easing credentialing and privileging requirements for providers rendering such services.

I wrote about these revised requirements for Michigan Medical Law Report. Here is the full article with permission from Michigan Lawyers Weekly/Michigan Medical Law Report.
