In today’s consumer-centric healthcare landscape, it’s no longer a matter of if, but rather how health systems are implementing telehealth as a strategic function in their care offerings. Recently, Teladoc worked with the 14-hospital Jefferson Health system in Philadelphia and praised its approach to telehealth implementation. Jefferson Health featured organization-wide clarity on its telehealth goals, the importance of workflow integration throughout the system’s continuum of care, and a multiparty-supported platform to facilitate communication between specialists, care coordinators, and patient family members. Most importantly, it highlighted that as a health system, if you’re not doing telehealth or starting a full-scale program now, you’re behind.
