Advantages of Telehealth
Telehealth services can help providers and patients improve healthcare outcomes by reducing the barriers to care.
Fiesole Adetosoye, global solutions leader, Telehealth and Integrated Care Management, Dell Healthcare Services, discusses how telehealth services can improve healthcare outcomes. More convenient access to primary care via telehealth can eliminate socio-economic barriers such as lack of transportation, which can also reduce the use of emergency departments as the first point of contact. Connecting care teams and patients, especially post discharge, enables the team to ensure that the patient is adhering to treatment and increases the interaction between all members of the care and patients, which positively impacts patient engagement and satisfaction.
