5 Reasons Patients Love Telehealth
With more and more physicians implementing telemedicine during the COVID-19 pandemic, our partners at Trizetto Provider Solutions, set out to learn how patients feel about this new way of receiving care. They polled patients who recently participated in a virtual healthcare visit to learn what they saw as the greatest benefit of telemedicine. These are the most-appreciated benefits.
- LESS STRESS Respondents were happy to say goodbye to the hassle of traffic and racing back to work in time for your next meeting.
- FINANCIAL BENEFITS Saving money with waived co-pays and doing away with parking fees and childcare expenses was a common response.
- TIME SAVINGS Foregoing commutes and long bouts in the waiting room were a leading answer.
- SAFETY Staying healthy and the security of contactless appointments proved to be very important to patients.
- CONVENIENCE The ease of taking appointments from the comfort of your own home was the most popular response.
