What is Virtual Care?

 

Virtual Care involves the use of technology to deliver healthcare services to patients, removing the need to travel for care. Examples of remote healthcare delivery include telephone-based services, videoconferencing and video visits, texting and virtual chats, smartphone applications, and online, web-based tools. "Telemedicine" is another term used to describe these types of virtual healthcare services. For some, the term telemedicine refers specifically to a medical or clinical use of technology while the term telehealth refers more broadly to a variety of virtual health care services, online therapy, outpatient programs and telemedicine solutions increasingly available to consumers. Telemedicine is also commonly referred to as e-health, digital medicine and virtual care.

​

How does virtual healthcare work?

 

Virtual care delivery and care management have evolved dramatically over the years. While virtual healthcare delivery varies by the types of services the patient needs and their access to devices and digital technologies in the home environment, the most common form of telemedicine include:

​​

Virtual appointments. Rather than a face-to-face medical visit or therapy session, virtual appointments allow healthcare providers and mental health professionals to deliver treatment or counseling over the phone or through video conferencing. Video conferences are typically conducted from the patient's home, community, or place of choice. Delivery methods for virtual patient care and online therapy sessions vary, but HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) compliance is a must. HIPAA was passed by Congress in 1996 and requires the protection and confidential handling of patient information and protected health records.
