Now, the COVID-19 national emergency is ending but telehealth has remained and continued to expand.

Jodi serves as the Associate Director of Clinical Operations in the Division of General Internal Medicine and leads many clinical innovation programs for the division. I also have the pleasure of welcoming Associate Professor and Doctor of Pharmacy Kelli Barnes. Kelli is the lead pharmacist for General Internal Medicine and created & leads the Remote Monitoring program along with many other pharmacy programs in primary care.
