TeleMedicine defined
•It may also be referred to as telehealth, e-health, or virtual healthcare
•It seeks to improve patient’s health by permitting a two-way, real time interactive
communication between the patient and the physician or healthcare provider at the distant site
supported by audio and video equipment and integrated medical devices
Advances
•Helpful in rural areas, where the shortage of healthcare providers had led to a lack of
accessibility to both basic healthcare and specialty care.
•Patients can get access to healthcare faster, which is a leading factor in improved patient-
engagement and better outcomes
•Fewer hospital re-admissions, more faithful following prescribed courses of treatment, and
faster recovery than that of patients not receiving remote interventions
•Allows hospitals to create hub-and-spoke networks to provide each other with support
•Effective way to administer preventive medicine and manage chronic conditions
Powerful software to simplify virtual visits
Because delivering virtual consults requires powerful, easy-to-use software. The software has
flexibility built in, so you can follow your own workflow and documentation requirements.
A robust feature set includes: scheduling, patient eligibility, payments, ICD-10 codes and mobile
messaging. For providers, acquiring patients, pricing and choosing to offer video, phone, in-
home or office consultations and billing has never been easier. Administrators have the ability to
manage permissions and begin offering patients telemedicine solutions. Patients can choose
how and when they see their service provider, from anywhere around the world.
