Technology has changed our lives drastically during these past few years. We have seen changes in the speed and quality of communication. One of the greatest changes we’ve seen is how technology has improved our access to healthcare. Beyond medical facilities having access to advanced treatments and improved tools, we have also seen the introduction and rise of telehealth software.
Telehealth has revolutionized modern healthcare forever. Its ability to facilitate remote consultations, monitor chronic conditions, and provide medical advice in real-time, amongst other things, has drastically improved patient outcomes and alleviated the strain on traditional healthcare systems.
The accessibility and convenience telehealth offers are undeniable; between 13 March 2020 and 31 July 2022, 118.2 million telehealth services have been delivered to 18 million patients, and more than 95,000 practitioners have now used telehealth services. If the power of telehealth does not yet back up your facility, you need to jump on this train fast. So, look no further, and let us introduce you to Yabbit’s telehealth software, a total game-changer for the healthcare scene.
What Telehealth Can Do for You
Let’s dive into the world of telehealth and what it brings to the table. Telehealth has brought what was once a dream into a reality, not having to leave your house to go to your doctor’s appointment. We have all dreamed of that at least once. With telehealth, it’s as easy as a video call; distance is no longer a barrier to quality medical care. Studies have shown that patients accessing telehealth had high overall satisfaction compared to those attending in-person consultations. Here’s why telehealth is creating waves and how Yabbit’s cutting-edge software is at the forefront of this movement:
Advantages of Telehealth and the Yabbit Touch:

- Enhanced Care Continuity: Remember when patients had to wait weeks for a follow-up appointment? Telehealth ensures you can maintain a consistent connection with your patients, ensuring seamless continuity of care. This is particularly crucial for managing chronic conditions or ongoing treatment plans.
