Telehealth services are shown to efficiently assist treatment delivery and reduce depression symptoms in the context of mental health.
Fremont, CA: The Covid-19 outbreak also served as a wake-up call to what is truly important in the professional and personal life. Healthcare providers, in particular, have encountered new hurdles, such as reconciling best-practice patient care with the need to modify procedures to safeguard and support their employees.
These obstacles provided an opportunity for telehealth—the digital provision of health-related services and information take center stage. While the virus outbreak has boosted the adoption of telehealth, its capacity to deliver high-quality medical treatment in various conditions will ensure that the technology becomes a permanent addition to healthcare.
Let's see the advantages of incorporating telehealth into your hospital's holistic health approach.
Expanded Patient Base
Late appointments and also no-shows are inconvenient aspects of in-person service. They cost the healthcare practitioner (HCP) time and the ability to reach out to a new patient.
Virtual medical appointments can help minimize no-shows and improve treatment adherence. Furthermore, because the technology allows for easy access and scheduling, HCPs may significantly employ telehealth to increase their patient base. In a cross-sectional poll, 52.5 percent of physicians claimed virtual appointments are more efficient and have the same quality as in-person visits.
