Telehealth is the foundation by which we can digitally transform healthcare delivery, supporting clinical care, as well as professional education, public health and healthcare administration virtually.
Using technology to connect healthcare providers and patients not only provides a solution for continuum of care during COVID-19's social distancing, it will also influence the way healthcare is delivered in the future. UCI Health is creating a robust telehealth system that allow personalized, targeted patient communications, digital platforms for records, payment and appointment scheduling, remote monitoring, video consults with providers and more.
As of April 2020, over 50% of patient visits were conducted virtually through video and telemedicine.
