 Telemedicine is defined as the use of technology to facilitate communication between a healthcare provider and a patient who is not physically present. During the COVID-19 pandemic, telemedicine has been used to provide follow-up and routine ambulatory care due to infection control concerns. Text messaging has also proven useful for document transfers and photo sharing. Non-communicable diseases such as sleep apnea, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and pulmonary rehabilitation have all benefited from the development of telemedicine. Examples of successful telehealth initiatives include the provision of care for people with COVID-19, managing its spread, and maintaining safe routine diagnostics and treatments. While telehealth can help reduce costs and increase access to care, it may also lead to increased social health inequalities if the digital divide excludes those most in need of care. As we move forward from the pandemic, the balance of remote versus face-to-face consultations and the specific role of digital health in different clinical and healthcare contexts will continue to evolve.
