Telehealth is a broad term that encompasses a variety of telecommunications technologies and tactics to provide health services from a distance. Telehealth involves everything from simple telephone calls to complex transmission of diagnostic imaging over smart devices, though its fundamental element is the virtual visit (face-to-face communication between provider and patient over the internet).

It allows long-distance patient and clinician contact, care, advice, reminders, education, intervention, monitoring, and even remote admissions. Telehealth has become so sophisticated as to be able to replace many in-office visits, which is very beneficial for you or your loved one who may have mobility problems and difficulty traveling, transportation issues, or merely scheduling conflicts and lack of time.

Services that can be delivered via telehealth and covered by the health plan include:
