Show-Me ECHO is a state-funded telehealth project operated by the Missouri Telehealth Network and the MU School of Medicine. It uses videoconferencing to connect interdisciplinary teams of experts with primary care clinicians and other professionals. Learn more about Wintemberg’s work with Show-Me ECHO.
