Telehealth | Golden Age

Telehealth is the use of electronic information and telecommunication technologies to support long-distance clinical health care, patient and professional health-related education, health administration, and public health. With the rise of telehealth, patients can now access medical care remotely, reducing the need for in-person visits and increasing access to healthcare services, especially in rural or underserved areas. American Well Corporation and Teladoc Health provide virtual care services to millions of patients. UnitedHealth Group offers a range of telehealth services, including virtual consultations and remote monitoring. The American Medical Association has expressed concerns about the potential for telehealth to disrupt traditional healthcare delivery models.
