Telehealth Support Services

Telehealth makes it easier for patients to get the health care they need. Telehealth is a valuable solution for applications where access to care could be improved. For example, access to care is a problem in the military health system. Military treatment facilities can be difficult to access due to their patients living far away. Telehealth allows greater accessibility to these facilities, reducing the need for individuals to be referred to a civilian provider. Telehealth is also valuable for the military in deployed settings.

Many soldiers have limited access to health care when deployed, and telehealth resolves this need by making health care more convenient. Telehealth supports active duty service members in the United States and those deployed overseas. For military applications, telehealth options:

  • Offer access to more patients: Health care providers deployed with the military can treat more patients using telehealth solutions. Doctors can see many patients, no matter where they are in the deployment zone.
  • Save time and money: Physicians can stay in one place while treating multiple patients. This practice saves time and money since the doctor will not have to physically move between patients.
  • Provide more specialists and doctors: Telehealth support services increase patient access to specialists, which is also true in military settings. Telehealth options allow specialists and physicians in the United States to treat soldiers deployed overseas. Patients and practitioners can effectively communicate about health concerns.

Some challenges health care providers may face when adopting a health care information system design for telehealth include:

  • Cybersecurity concerns
  • Technology troubleshooting
  • Adherence to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and other relevant local regulations
