How We’ve Evolved
The California Telehealth Resource Center (CTRC) is a leading source of expertise and comprehensive knowledge in the development and operation of telehealth and other digital health modality programs. Established as a federally designated Telehealth Resource Center in 2006, the CTRC is nationally recognized as one of fourteen HRSA funded Telehealth Resource Centers around the country. The 12 regional and 2 national TRCs are expertly staffed and have come together under one consortium to further the advancement and accessibility of telehealth with a focus in rural healthcare.
CTRC is housed within the California Telehealth Network (CTN), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. In 2017, CTN and CTRC began our direct affiliation with OCHIN — a nonprofit health innovation center providing knowledge-based solutions that promote quality, affordable health care for all.
