Telehealth

Corey Scurlock, MD, Westchester Medical Center's medical director, and Wendy Deibert, VP of Clinical Solutions at Caregility, say COVID-19 brought to light the value of telehealth and no one wants to go back to a pre-telehealth world.

Cam Deemer, president of DrFirst, says the pandemic has forced the adoption of telehealth and other technologies that already existed.

Launching as an app this summer, the Mulk E-Hospital will reportedly offer a range of healthcare services by over 2,000 medical specialists from around the world.

COVID-19 has forced remote patient monitoring, an experience that many patients find as more convenient, time-saving and equal to in-person care, says Dr. Chris Hobson, CMO for Orion Health.

This week's top stories include the virtual health platform going mainstream despite more work needing to be done and sleep tracking coming to Apple Watch.

Doctors are racing to adapt to new technologies to be able to care for patients remotely, says Shawn Morris, CEO of Privia Health.

Users can also access digital Medical Certificates (MC), clinic invoices and laboratory results from the clinics visited securely through the app.
