Telehealth is a service that allows you to keep in contact with your health care provider even when making an office visit is too inconvenient or risky. Your provider at Triad Internal Medicine can see and talk to you using high-quality video and audio technology. That way, you don’t have to go in person to discuss symptoms or follow up after treatment. Your provider also offers health support using telehealth services. They may ask you to upload food logs, check-in about your medication, or provide blood glucose readings remotely using this technology. Doing so can improve your health care as it gives your provider the accurate, real-time information they need to assess you. You may also use telehealth for communications regarding test results. With telehealth options, your provider can upload your results so you get them faster than you might otherwise. Plus, they’re all in writing, so miscommunication is far less likely.
Telehealth offers an extra layer of convenience for when life gets in the way of health prioritization. Doctor appointments aren’t always easy to keep as numerous unexpected circumstances can arise ahead of time. Telehealth makes it so you can still get in contact with your provider for appointments you may have otherwise skipped.
