What is telemedicine?

Telemedicine is the delivery of healthcare services remotely using technology—typically through video calls, phone calls, secure messaging, or online platforms—so patients can consult with licensed healthcare providers without visiting the clinic in person.

Key features of telemedicine:

Virtual consultations for diagnosis, follow-up, and treatment planning
Secure platforms to protect patient privacy and medical information (HIPAA-compliant in the U.S.)
Convenience for patients who are busy, live far away, or have mobility issues
Access to care for rural or underserved areas

Common uses for telemedicine:

General medical check-ups and prescription refills that does not require physical presence.
Chronic condition management (e.g., diabetes, hypertension)
Mental health therapy sessions
Follow-ups after in-person visits
Certain dermatology, nutrition, and lifestyle consultations

Benefits:

Saves time and travel costs
Expands access to healthcare
Often reduces wait times for appointments

If you want, I can also write a patient-friendly telemedicine explainer you can put on your clinic’s website or in email campaigns so clients understand how it works and how to book.
