SUMMIT FAQs
Why should I attend?
We understand that there are dozens of telehealth and healthcare meetings every year. CTeL created these meetings because we were asked by the industry to provide a forum that would facilitate a high level conversation among industry stakeholders. In response to that request, CTeL created the summits keeping the group small, the dialogue substantive, and maintaining an invitee list with loads of industry diversity.
This meeting is a unique opportunity for our members to engage with each other on the pressing policy issues of the day and to work on business development. It is by invitation only.
What is the meeting format?
Traditionally, attendees are seated at roundtables and everyone has access to a microphone. For the June 2024 Summit, attendees will join us for two days of substantive content as well as invaluable networking opportunities. The telehealth community is strongest when we come together and share our success stories as well as our existing barriers. The format is conversational in nature, however there is a structured agenda and designated speakers and panels. This event is void of PowerPoints and long presentations.
Why is there a cost to attend?
CTeL Summits are the biannual meetings of our membership. Our cooperative membership structure means everyone pays the same amount and receives the same benefits, access, and networking opportunities—that includes the CTeL Summit.
At CTeL we are committed to maintaining our mission of independent content and have chosen not to accept sponsorship money for our Summits. Attendee registration fees are the sole support of CTeL Summits, allowing us to continue to host these experiences.
Who attends this event?
