Virtual care delivery is an essential skill for all physicians.
Telehealth is one of the fastest growing areas within healthcare, poised to change how patients access care and how doctors deliver it. As Telehealth expands globally and is adopted by more hospitals, there is an emerging need for trained professionals who will effectively and efficiently deliver Telehealth services. At Telehealth Institute, we’ve partnered with US medical schools and practicing physicians to educate future and current healthcare professionals from the fundamentals to the most advanced concepts of Telehealth.
