For example, consider patient privacy, functionality, and compliance, among others. Your proposal should include at least one feature that address each of the following requirements for a successful Telemedicine program:

  • Functionality,

Part 4: Analysis of PCP and RN Shortages

The United States is projected to experience a significant shortage of primary care physicians (PCPs) and registered nurses (RNs), which is expected to intensify with the aging baby-boomer population. According to the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC, 2020), it has been estimated that by 2030 the country could experience a shortage of between 54,100 and139,000 primary care physicians, which often affects those living in inner-city communities and rural America. According to Zhang et al (2018), by 2030 there could be a deficit of Registered Nurses of over 510,000. As the need for healthcare grows, the uneven distribution and growing deficit of resources and providers leaves a large percentage of Americans at risk.
