TELEMEDICINE AND
TELEHEALTH AT Dr.
MEEROFF'S OFFICE
Hi, friends, this is
Dr. Meeroff with important news!
We have introduced TELEMEDICINE
AND TELEHEALTH into our practice with great success!!
Telemedicine is the
practice of medicine using technology to deliver medical care at its best. A
physician in one location uses a telecommunication tool to deliver care to a
patient at a distant site.
Telehealth refers
broadly to the use of electronic technologies and services to provide care and
services at-a-distance. That is consultations, writing and sending
prescriptions to pharmacies, ordering laboratory and imaging tests, delivering
medical products such as vitamins and nutritional supplements, etc.
All medical societies
and medical government control agencies strongly support the use of
telemedicine as an appropriate and efficient means of improving health if
conducted within the context of appropriate standards of care.
