The Health Fund and four other funders are joining together to support 61 Michigan health organizations as they ramp up telehealth efforts. The nearly $3 million of grants will help patients access critical care without putting themselves, their families, or their doctors at risk.
“A Year in Health” illustrates some of ways we learned from our partners and spread the word about their work, from studying behavioral healthcare access to investing in health journalism.
