What is Telehealth?

           

Definition: The electronic provision of health care and information services for the direct benefit of individual patients and their families.

 

It includes actual physician-patient interactions via telemedicine, and the provision of education and information services designed to increase awareness of (and where applicable, compliance with) diagnoses and medical conditions, treatments, and good health practices.
