The practice of caring for the patients remotely when healthcare providers and patients are not physically present with each other is referred to as Telemedicine.

The concept of telemedicine could be new to healthcare providers and practitioners due to the slow adoption of technology in the healthcare industry.

However, the continued advancements of technology in the healthcare industry have greatly expanded its usability among the people.

Moreover, the demand from the new generation and tech-savvy population have pushed them towards telemedicine because of its convenience, cost savings, and intelligent features.

Now, it has become a new norm for healthcare providers, physicians, and medical groups to integrate telemedicine as a part of their healthcare services offering.

Modern technology has enabled doctors to consult patients by using HIPAA-compliant video conferencing software to start delivering telemedicine consultations.

Telemedicine is conducted in different ways.

In which the most basic is just a video call (the one which we use regularly to communicate with family members and friends).

But, in most countries’ telemedicine consultation requires a HIPAA-compliant video conference tool.

Digitals, a cloud-based communication, and API integration solutions have made it feasible for healthcare practitioners and providers to deliver services to patients at the comfort of their convenience.

With the help of Digitals, the healthcare providers will be able to extend their support line 24/7 to help people in getting information without any delays.

The Vox Digitals platform is scalable to fit a large number of callers, direct new patients to the company’s website, lead existing patients to consult doctors through e-visit scheduling, and most importantly, provide relevant information to the callers immediately.

Healthcare organizations using telemedicine are now able to assist the employees remotely but addressing queries and providing advice to patients approaching from different communication mediums can be a daunting task for healthcare providers.

With the help of Digitals, organizations can get access to various platforms quickly in one place within the same application.

Patients can now receive a fast diagnosis through consulting a doctor via video, SMS, or voice at their convenience for their healthcare conditions like cold, sore throat, and acne.

The RTC (real-time communication) within the application helps your patients get answers quickly to their health questions through their preferred mode of communication without having to meet the doctor in-person.

In telemedicine, data security and data privacy are the topmost priorities every organization will consider upon dealing with patients.

Therefore, it is important to ensure that the means of communication between doctors and patients are user-friendly and security compliant.

Digitals is a robust software that allows everything from data storage to live video conferencing. Overall, there are various Digitals APIs that fulfill the needs of patients today.
