Los Angeles, Friday, 10 January 2025.
The American Telemedicine Association’s Nexus 2025 conference highlights new strategies in virtual care and digital therapeutics, aiming to enhance healthcare delivery across the United States.
Strategic Vision for Digital Health
The American Telemedicine Association (ATA) is set to host its landmark Nexus 2025 conference from May 3-6 at the New Orleans Convention Center [1]. The event represents a significant evolution in digital health strategy, bringing together the ATA’s Center of Digital Excellence (CODE), Digital Therapeutics Alliance, and various healthcare stakeholders [1]. Notable participants include industry leaders from Intermountain Health, Mayo Clinic, and UPMC [1], showcasing the conference’s role in shaping the future of connected health delivery.
Innovation Tracks and Educational Focus
The conference has been strategically structured with specialized tracks covering leadership, information technology, policy, and clinical aspects of digital health [1]. Of particular significance is the IT track, which will focus on integrating wearables and smart systems into healthcare workflows, with special emphasis on Electronic Health Record (EHR) integration [1]. The leadership track has been specifically designed for healthcare executives, addressing critical challenges in digital care implementation and scalability [1].
Recent Developments in Virtual Care
The announcement comes amid significant developments in the virtual healthcare landscape. Just this week, on January 7, 2025, several major initiatives were launched, including a $5 million implementation of EMS telemedicine services in Northeast Minnesota [3] and the establishment of the first virtual emergency department through a partnership between VSee Health and Tele911 [3]. These developments align with the ATA’s mission to enhance digital care integration across the healthcare system.
Policy and Implementation Framework
A key focus of Nexus 2025 will be navigating the complex regulatory landscape under the current administration [1]. The conference will address critical aspects of policy development, including FDA approval pathways and CPT coding challenges [1]. This comprehensive approach aims to ensure that digital health innovations maintain high standards of compliance and quality while promoting equitable access to care across the United States [1].
