Publication

Partner Jeff Smith authored the article, "Bringing Telemedicine to the Workplace: What Employers Should Know." The article, which appeared August 8 in Akron Legal News, defines telemedicine and the legal risks that it may impose on employers.

"If you’re like most people, you don’t enjoy sitting in a doctor’s office with other coughing and sneezing people while waiting for your appointment, or wasting half a day just to get a prescription refilled.

The concept of telemedicine is growing in popularity because it can make routine medical care easier to access and less expensive.

But although it can be a great solution, employers are often unaware of the legal risks associated with introducing telemedicine to the workplace."
