Telehealth

Telehealth is the use of electronic information and telecommunication systems to deliver health care related services such as direct clinical care to patients, health education to patients and professionals and the administration of health information where patients and care coordinators are separated by distance. At its core Telehealth is about patient care.

Modes of Delivering Telehealth

1 - Real-time (Synchronous) Telehealth

Relies on telecommunication links that allow interactions via telephones, mobile devices, video conferencing, email and other technology driven means of communication.

2 - Store & Forward or (Asynchronous) Telehealth

Captures (stored) digital images, video, audio and clinical data on a computer and transmits the information (forwarded) through secure means to an alternative location where they are reviewed by a specialist.

3 - Remote Monitoring

Which is a combination of store and forward as well as real-time applications. It is used in care management to improve patient outcomes.
