This Week Health 5 Years

87.7M Telehealth Claims from Oct 2019 to Dec 2020. What did we learn?

  • Behavioral and Mental Health had 5 times the volume of telehealth claims over the second condition.
  • Most of telehealth is delivered in-state
  • More telehealth was done over zoom than the plain old telephone.
  • Providers largely believe the quality of care is improved with the use of telehealth
  • The smartphone camera is still the most used remote sensor in use

And of course, telehealth played a significant role during the pandemic in keeping people engaged in their health as many said they would have delayed care if they didn't have telehealth as an option.

All this and more on Today in Health IT as we cover this study.
