By 2025 the telehealth market is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 30%. It is driven by increased demand for remote healthcare solutions following the pandemic.
Challenges:
- Quality Assurance: Making sure of high-quality care in virtual consultations is important and requires continuous monitoring.
- Digital Divide: Variability in technology access can limit effectiveness, particularly among vulnerable populations.
Benefits:
- Increased Access to Care: Such portals are likely to increase healthcare accessibility among disadvantaged segments with no geographical barriers.
- Cost-effective: No more or fewer physical visits can significantly make both patients and providers avoid higher costs, thus help achieve overall affordability in healthcare.
