As states start opening back up and businesses start picking up, there are definitely changes coming to business/work models.  Agree on telemed.

I'm real curious to see what happens with nursing homes and assisted living facilities.  I'm not sure which way the model goes.

Path A is they stay pretty much as is but with more stringent cleaning/disinfecting/testing.  Because of that they charge even more.  This model ends up happening if families still decide they can't handle taking care of their elderly dependents and have to fork over the money.

Path B is families start deciding it's too dangerous and risky to concentrate that many elderly in a confined area and if another virus breaks out they lose the opportunity to visit in person and some lose the chance to say goodbye to their loved ones.  This model brings in an opportunity for home health care.  Still lots of costs, but I think there is a chance for emerging businesses to figure out how to make this work in terms of space at a home and personnel to take care of them.

I do think assisted living or long-term care facilities are going to see a drop for a few years as people start using them as a last resort rather than a convenient option.
