Telehealth is an overarching term for healthcare services
delivered using telecommunications technologies. Within telehealth,
telemedicine is the term used to describe the delivery of clinical services
and care, including evaluation, diagnosis, treatment plan, follow up care,
and ongoing management of medications or chronic disease.
Telemedicine is proving to be a great value to patients as well as providers.
People with limited access, elderly populations, working parents, and patients
who are less ambulatory during post-operative recovery all benefit from
being seen by a clinician without having to travel to the doctor’s office.
Through VOLA’s Telehealth solutions people in rural areas can easily be
treated and followed by a primary care provider or a specialist without
driving great distances to a medical center. Elderly patients can visit with
their doctor from their home or assisted living community.
Are patients comfortable with telemedicine?
Absolutely. One study found that 64% of patients would see a doctor by video. In another study of patients’ satisfaction with telehealth visits after
receiving one, 94% – 99% reported being “very satisfied” with all telehealth attributes.
What Conditions/Services Are Offered
In primary care, patients are treated for minor acute conditions such as allergies, pink eye, rashes, back pain, otitis media, and poison ivy. Chronic
conditions such as mental health issues, diabetes, or congestive heart failure can also be managed by a combination of remote patient
monitoring and video visits. And as long as a procedure isn’t needed, nearly any kind of office visit follow up in primary care can be conducted
using telemedicine.
On the specialty side, modern surgical groups are moving toward the delivery of post-op follow up visits using telemedicine. They can also deliver
test reviews and consultations, and video visits are great for connecting specialists with rural hospitals and physicians to render opinions on their
cases.
In addition to increased access to specialists, through the VOLA telehealth solution, prescriptions and genetic testing can be ordered for patients
as well.

information and take a patient’s vitals* ( if they have the appropriate wearable compared to their profile ). The patient and provider will be able
to communicate directly through the app via phone and/or video.
Utilizing AI the consultation will be converted to text for the provider so that they can easily and more quickly review and update their notes to
provide back to the patient.
A provider may also order tests and or prescribed medications for the patient in real time. Follow-up consults can easily be scheduled as well.
