Telemedicine project tests home diabetes care access
SUNY Upstate's Joslin Center leads a large six month federal telemedicine grant to study cost benefits for 1500 Medicare patients in northern Manhattan and upstate New York. Half receive at home computer systems and remote monitoring while the other half stay on standard care. The program aims to reduce costs, improve daily diabetes management, and provide timely alerts to doctors via a secure web interface.

Regulators and professional groups weigh guidelines and licensing issues as video conferencing emerges as an alternative.
