Description:
Technology has had many positive effects on today’s world, making it a better place. Technology has made great strides specifically improving healthcare and healthcare delivery with telemedicine.
Telemedicine is a rapidly expanding global concept that is helping healthcare in many ways to provide timely, reasonably priced care to patients. This webinar will describe the differences between telemedicine, telehealth and m-health (mobile health) so the attendee can easily understand and distinguish between the different terms.
The global telemedicine outlook will be shared using future projection estimates in terms of dollars through the year 2025. The interest in, uses for and the outlook for telemedicine technology will be discussed in percentages to describe the eleven types of technology used, the level of interest, rankings, current use and more. The types of technology include video-based therapy, mobile apps for treatment and computerized screening/assessments among others.
The different technologies used to deliver telemedicine to patients will be noted and discussed. Commonly used technologies are widespread globally and lend themselves well to telemedicine uses.
Telehealth provider communications take place between different groups of people and technologies. These lines of communication will be described along with the purposes for them.
Global man-made and natural disasters often create real challenges when healthcare needs arise. Telemedicine can come to the rescue, enabling the healthcare provider to address the situation from a safe vantage point during and after the crisis. Once the crisis is over, and reality sets in, people often need help to cope with the aftereffects of the event. Telemedicine can help with the post-crisis recovery process.
Addiction is a huge problem currently with the well-publicized opioid epidemic. Opioids and addictions such as alcohol, gambling and smoking are treatable via telemedicine techniques discussed in this presentation.
Time is highly valued. No one seems to have enough of it. There is a physician shortage that is projected to worsen. Physician waiting rooms are full of people that have long waits for their appointments. Emergency rooms end up caring for some patients that are often not true emergencies. Learn how telemedicine can assist with those issues.
Burnout is a serious concern due to the physician shortage. See how telemedicine is helping to reduce burnout from happening and how it can help physicians who are burned out.
See how healthcare providers and healthcare students can receive education and continuing education via electronic means, saving time and reduced travel costs.
Healthcare costs continue to rise, and people struggle to pay their bills. Telemedicine can be a cost-effective way to reduce healthcare costs and make care more affordable.
Learn what some telemedicine companies are doing, how they operate and how they are changing the healthcare industry. Some telemedicine companies are designed to treat specific patient groups for specific purposes.
Employers face rising health costs as well. See how telemedicine is working for organizations to reduce staff healthcare costs, cut lost work time and promote wellness.
