Overview
About this course
Telemedicine uses technology to provide medical care remotely, utilizing a telecommunications network to connect patients and healthcare providers located at different sites. Telehealth on the other hand encompasses a wide range of electronic and telecommunications technologies designed to facilitate the delivery of healthcare services such as online doctor consultation, health, administrative, and educational services from a distance.
Both telemedicine and telehealth play a crucial role in transforming and improving primary care by addressing various challenges and enhancing key aspects of healthcare delivery. Digital health has indeed opened many doors of opportunities for healthcare providers and their patients.
