On July 26, 2025, Palmetto Care Connections participated in CTRL + ALT + CREATE, a free, family-friendly open house hosted at SCETV in Columbia. The event invited the public to explore SCETV’s educational programming through immersive and interactive exhibits, spotlighting South Carolina’s culture, history, and natural beauty.
PCC’s presence added to the experience by offering families a hands-on look at how telehealth is shaping the future of accessible care across the state. Chief Technology Officer Matt Hiatt led live demonstrations, showing how virtual healthcare visits work and answering questions from curious kids and parents alike.
Many families expressed interest in how telehealth can save time and reduce barriers to care—especially in rural areas. Young attendees were especially fascinated by the idea of a doctor “visiting” through a screen. It was a memorable day of connection, learning, and community outreach that highlighted the growing role of digital health tools in everyday life.
