Telemedicine
Telemedicine
Telemedicine is the use of telecommunication and information technologies in order to provide clinical health care at a distance. It helps eliminate distance barriers and can improve access to medical services that would often not be consistently available in distant rural communities.
There are potential benefits to telemedicine:
- Increased access to providers
- Faster and more convenient treatment
- Better continuity of care
- Reduction of lost work time and travel costs
- Ability to do couples and family therapy when some family members can’t be physically present in the office
- Saves travel and waiting time
- Helps to preserve your privacy by not exposing clients to others in and around the practitioner’s office
- Delivers services to those in rural or underserved areas, or the handicapped/disabled without the usual logistical problems
