The digital health world has seen massive growth over the last year. It’s important to understand what various virtual healthcare terms mean. eHealth, mHealth, telehealth, and telemedicine are used to describe the use of mobile and desktop technology for patient management. These terms are used interchangeably at times, however they each represent a different aspect of technology and healthcare.
The onset of the global pandemic caused telemedicine usage to skyrocket. The nature of COVID-19 caused more patients to rely on telemedicine services to ensure they received the care they needed. In a pre-COVID world, telemedicine visits faced barriers beyond real-time, synchronous audio and video communication. These barriers have come down due to COVID-19, and more clinicians have emplored to the possibility to expand utilizing telehealth services.
As telemedicine becomes more and more popular, it’s important to understand what a typical telemedicine appointment will look like.
