What is Telemedicine?

Telemedicine refers to the delivery of clinical services through real-time, two-way communication between patients and healthcare providers using electronic audio and visual technologies.

How It Works

In primary care, telemedicine is commonly conducted via phone consultations, where patients seek medical advice for non-emergency conditions that do not require physical examination.

It does not replace face-to-face consultations when necessary but complements traditional healthcare services by improving accessibility and efficiency.

Value Proposition
