University of California Telehealth Network

The University of California Telehealth Network (UCTN) is a secure, statewide system that connects healthcare providers across California using advanced video and data technology. It allows doctors, specialists, and hospitals to share medical expertise, consult, and provide care remotely, especially in rural or underserved areas. This network improves access to quality healthcare, facilitates timely diagnoses, and supports ongoing medical education. Essentially, UCTN acts as a digital bridge, ensuring patients receive expert medical attention regardless of their location, by linking the largest academic health centers with community clinics and other healthcare facilities across the state.
