Telehealth – Convenient and Accessible Patient Care
Telephone consultation, videoconferencing, transmission of still images, e-health technologies, patient portals, and remote patient monitoring are all considered telehealth services. Electronic communication cannot be used for emergencies or time-sensitive matters. Remote visits are no longer an option for patients who regularly reside outside of North Carolina.
What are the benefits of a telehealth appointment?
- Convenient and accessible
