On today’s episode of Colorado Edition, we discover how the rise of virtual health care during the pandemic changed both patient-provider relationships, and the future of health care. Then, we learn how communities damaged by last year’s wildfires are trying to recover their natural areas. Next, we hear about the first gray wolf pups to be spotted in the state since the 1940s. And, we check in with the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel, where the Colorado’s last printing press approaches its final days.
Today’s guests include chief of cardiology at Denver Health Medical Center, Dr. Brian Stauffer; medical director for virtual health at UC Health, Christopher Davis; Aspen Public Radio reporter Alex Hager; Colorado Sun reporter Jason Blevins; and pressroom manager of The Daily Sentinel, Lonnie Vincent.
