Joining the initiative is the UVA Center for Telehealth, the Healthy Appalachia Institute at the University of Virginia’s College at Wise, the Southwest Virginia Health Authority, the Health Wagon, Tri-Area Health, and Johnson City, Tenn.-based Ballad Health, according to a Jan. 30 release from UVA.
