Current Outlook and What the Future Holds
Watch
The COVID-19 pandemic brought industry-wide attention and sweeping legislative initiatives to telehealth as a means for care delivery in a safe, secure, and socially distant environment.
This seismic shift in moving telehealth from a point of very low utilization to a more standard means of providing healthcare services has had an impact on all aspects of the healthcare delivery spectrum. What will be the lasting impact of this shift on providers, payers, and patients? Is the more widespread use and adoption of telehealth services and technologies here to stay?
