What Is Telemedicine?
Telemedicine (or telehealth) involves virtual visits with a health care provider over a secure video conferencing platform. The provider will likely ask about your health history and symptoms, and take a look at any visible symptoms such as a rash or swelling. They may also ask you to perform certain movements or basic tests, which they can observe via video to aid in their diagnosis. Your provider will answer your questions, and if they can make a diagnosis virtually, they may either recommend treatment that you can carry out at home or prescribe medication that can help.
Telemedicine appointments are a convenient option for many patients with a variety of ailments, but they’re not always the best choice—if you or your child has an illness or injury that requires hands-on testing or treatment (such as strep throat or a broken bone), you will need to visit a clinic in person. And, if you are experiencing a life- or limb-threatening illness or injury, skip the telehealth appointment and call 911 or get to an emergency room as soon as possible.
