Quarterly Cohort Schedule

This quarterly enrollment structure ensures multiple opportunities throughout the year to begin your TeleAllergy and Immunology career journey. Each cohort follows the same comprehensive curriculum with dedicated faculty support and placement assistance upon completion.

Enrollment Process Flow

Before diving into the clinical and operational aspects of TeleAllergy and Immunology, participants complete a comprehensive onboarding process designed to ensure technological readiness, establish baseline knowledge, and set expectations for the program ahead.

This thorough onboarding ensures that all participants begin the program with the necessary tools, access, and baseline knowledge to maximize their learning experience. The pre-course work typically requires 5-10 hours to complete prior to the official program start date.

The Foundations block establishes the essential knowledge base for telehealth practice in allergy and immunology. This four-week intensive covers the historical context, clinical science, regulatory framework, and ethical considerations that underpin specialized telehealth services.

Immunology and Clinical Science Refresher

A thorough review of immunologic mechanisms provides the scientific framework for tele-assessment and management. Topics include the innate vs. adaptive immune systems, hypersensitivity classifications, microbiome influences, and age-related differences in allergic presentations.

Regulatory Compliance and Legal Framework

Block B transitions from theory to practice, focusing on the tools, techniques, and operational frameworks needed to establish a functional digital allergy and immunology practice.

Remote Assessment Technology and Techniques

Participants learn to select and use appropriate equipment, including specialized cameras, digital stethoscopes, and respiratory monitors. The curriculum emphasizes guided remote examination, patient-captured media protocols, and integrating home-based diagnostics like spirometry.

Business Fundamentals and Coding

This component addresses the business infrastructure necessary for a successful telehealth practice. Participants learn about data security, provider enrollment, and telehealth-specific coding and billing, including:

• NPI registration and payer enrollment strategies
• Telehealth place of service codes (POS 02/10) and modifiers
• Coding for telehealth E/M services, RPM/RTM, and chronic care management
• Digital marketing and referral funnel development

This section equips participants with the specialized knowledge to evaluate, diagnose, and manage the most common allergic respiratory conditions through virtual care.

This section addresses the unique challenges and opportunities in evaluating visually-dependent and potentially life-threatening conditions through telehealth.

These potentially life-threatening conditions require specialized telehealth approaches that balance safety, accessibility, and evidence-based practice.

Antibiotic Allergy De-Labeling Pathways

1. Initial Risk Stratification via telehealth history
2. Evidence Review of medical records
3. Shared Decision Making on challenge vs. testing
4. Coordination with local partners for oral challenges
5. Post-Challenge telehealth follow-up and record updates

This section broadens the scope of teleallergy practice to encompass immunodeficiency disorders and unique populations requiring tailored telehealth approaches.

• Primary Immunodeficiency Screening: Using validated tools, remote infection history analysis, and virtual family history assessment.
• Diagnostic Coordination: Remote ordering and interpretation of immunologic lab panels.
• Special Populations: Telehealth management for pregnancy, geriatrics, adolescents, and athletes.

Block D focuses on treatment implementation through telehealth, combining conventional pharmacotherapy with specialized procedures, integrative approaches, and comprehensive management strategies.

Allergen Immunotherapy Coordination

Allergen immunotherapy requires specialized protocols. The curriculum addresses both sublingual (SLIT) for remote management and coordinating subcutaneous (SCIT) with partner clinics.

Block E shifts focus to operational excellence, providing the business, compliance, and growth strategies needed for a successful teleallergy practice.

Compliance and Risk Management

The final block focuses on comprehensive assessment, certification, and practice launch preparation to ensure participants can demonstrate mastery and develop actionable plans.

Practice Launch Preparation

• Launch Plan Development: Personalized business plans, budgets, and timelines.
• Tech Finalization: System hardening and disaster recovery planning.
• Partner Network: MOUs with local facilities for hybrid care.

The program prepares practitioners to manage a wide range of conditions, including respiratory (allergic rhinitis, asthma), dermatologic (eczema, urticaria), food allergies (IgE-mediated, FPIES, EoE), drug/vaccine/insect allergies, and immunodeficiencies.

Graduates learn telehealth-specific protocols for complex medication allergies, specialized immunology conditions like CVID and SIGAD, and multidisciplinary care for conditions like eosinophilic esophagitis.

The telehealth format offers unique advantages for environmental assessment and modification guidance. The curriculum covers evidence-based strategies in environmental control, mind-body techniques, nutrition, and physical interventions.

Leveraging telehealth, graduates can develop structured educational programs, digital remote monitoring services, specialized consultations (eConsults, school/employer consults), and clinical programs for immunotherapy and biologic therapies.

The curriculum emphasizes ethical implementation of AI tools, addressing bias, transparency, and privacy. It covers AI-assisted triage, ambient listening, predictive models, advanced home diagnostics, and smart adherence technologies.

The program explores transformative technologies like AI-powered decision support, computer vision for dermatology, advanced biosensors, connected medication devices, and next-generation therapeutics including microbiome-targeted and precision immunotherapies.

The curriculum includes practical case studies demonstrating the application of teleallergy principles for various scenarios, including pediatric uncontrolled asthma, adult chronic urticaria, food allergy management for college transitions, penicillin allergy de-labeling, and immunodeficiency evaluations.

This section outlines a structured daily schedule for a sustainable teleallergy practice, balancing clinical care (synchronous and asynchronous), administrative management, and business development.

The program culminates in a comprehensive assessment process including formative quizzes, Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs), and compliance audits, leading to certification and targeted career support for various pathways.
