The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of telemedicine across the world. This innovative approach allows patients to consult doctors remotely via secure video calls or mobile apps. Beyond convenience, telemedicine ensures continuity of care for those in remote or underserved areas. With the rise of wearable devices and health monitoring apps, telemedicine offers real-time insights into patient health, enabling timely intervention and better management of chronic conditions.

Telemedicine bridges the gap between doctors and patients, breaking geographical barriers. The integration of IoT-enabled devices, electronic health records (EHRs), and AI-driven analytics has strengthened this digital ecosystem.
Patients can now share their vitals, test results, and health history instantly with healthcare providers. Hospitals benefit from reduced administrative overhead, while patients enjoy shorter wait times and cost savings.
As the field matures, policymakers must ensure standardized data security measures, interoperability between platforms, and equitable access to all populations.
