- Abstract
The article focuses on the medical legislation that aims to promote the use of telemedicine and modifies regional inequalities in the accessibility and availability of medical services in France in 2011. It states that the French legislation would allow physicians to invoice the government for medical services provided over the telephone at the same rate that they bill for services given in their offices. It says that the effort was a response to the medical inequalities in isolated areas.
