Telemedicine
Connect with your medical provider virtually with telemedicine services offered at Faith Regional.
Telemedicine (sometimes referred to as telehealth) uses computers, phones, and mobile devices to deliver healthcare remotely.
Benefits of Telemedicine
There are many advantages or uses of telemedicine, including:
- Receive care from the comfort and convenience of your home, office, or anywhere you have access to a computer, tablet, or smartphone.
- Less potential exposure to other illnesses or contagious diseases
- Reduced travel time and absence from work or school to access healthcare
- Ongoing monitoring of some chronic conditions through a portable device that can send real-time data to your provider
Telemedicine may not be available for every medical issue. In some cases, it’s best to see the healthcare provider in person so you can be physically examined or undergo tests.
If you are interested in telemedicine services, ask if this is an option when scheduling your appointment.
