What is Telehealth all About?

Telehealth is a type of healthcare that allows you to receive care from your doctor without going to an in-person visit. It’s done through the use of a simple internet connection.

There are several options for Telehealth care:

• You can speak with your doctor over the phone or video chat.
• They can then send and receive messages using secure messaging and email.
• You can also use remote monitoring to keep your doctor informed about your health. For instance, you can monitor your vitals and other vitals using a device.

What Types of Care Can I Get Using Telehealth?

Aside from providing specialized care, Telehealth can also help you monitor and improve your health conditions. It can do so by helping you keep track of your medication changes and chronic health issues.

Before you start using Telehealth, it’s important that you talk to your doctor about the pros and cons of it. He or she will then decide if it’s right for you.

Care you can get with Telehealth:

• Mental health treatment, including online therapy, counseling, and medication management
• Follow-up appointments are also sometimes necessary for treatment of ADHD and other mental disorders.
• Physical therapy and occupational therapy
• Urgent care issues like colds, coughs, and stomach aches
• Recurring conditions like migraines or urinary tract infections
• Lab test or x-ray results
