Title: Telemedicine - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Description: The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic significantly accelerated the adoption of telemedicine across the world. As a result, many patients have shown an increased preference for seeking healthcare services through digital methods than in-person appointments. This can be attributed to the low costs, convenience, and increased efficiency of care services linked to telemedicine. Telemedicine is mostly used to conduct patient assessments, write or renew prescriptions, and offer certain medical services such as psychological treatment (Kichloo et al., 2020). The integration of telemedicine in the healthcare system has been linked to shorter hospital stays and decreased readmissions and hospital mortality rates. Legislative initiatives implemented during the Covid-19 pandemic promoted the widespread adoption of telemedicine. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
