Telemedicine and remote patient management through emerging digital platforms

Telemedicine is the future of healthcare as this emerging digital technology can deliver healthcare seamlessly, filling the holes in the primary care system. In recent years, there has been growing interest in the application of telemedicine, and many patients have started to use telemedical services. The telemedicine platforms address many of the issues and needs of patients and providers, and this is why such services are growing at exponential rates. The pandemic brought telemedicine to the level of the hype that health information technologies have long sought. Providers were forced to adopt new care delivery models that leverage technology to accomplish the suspended care of chronic illness. Mitigating mortality and morbidity from disease in a population at high risk for severe outcomes from disease has been of paramount importance. Emerging technology might enable us to induce behavioral changes that transform high-risk patient populations into healthier and more vigilant ones.
