Ben Benjamin, Chief Executive Officer of Authentidate, stated, "This is an important piece of proposed legislation that promotes the use of innovative, cost-effective technologies in the provision of quality healthcare. It represents a real opportunity to help contain healthcare costs without sacrificing the quality healthcare services that Americans have come to expect from their healthcare providers. We appreciate that Congressman Mike Thompson has introduced this new legislation and for his persistent efforts with regard to the practical expansion of the use of telehealth solutions to a much broader patient population. As a leading telehealth solutions provider, we are pleased to express our full support for this legislation and we see it as a reasonable and cost-effective path toward improving our healthcare system."
