title: Satellite system addresses rural health problems.
abstract: The University of Nebraska Medical Center uses the recently established NEB*SAT state-owned satellite television system to transmit several types of educational presentations to rural Nebraska. The system represents the latest in a series of pioneering two-way television activities which have opened educational opportunities to students and professionals off-campus. Compressed video, transmitted via the NEB*SAT system, allows us to share credit courses in nursing and medical technology, administrative meetings, case conferences, and continuing education programs.
