Telemedicine Allows Doctors to Save on Facility Costs and Pass the Savings on to the Patient
Remote medical services like Telemedicine Physicians Group offer patients many benefits, including convenience and affordability.
LOS ANGELES, May 12, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- In the year 2015, the Internet and digital communications technology have made the world smaller, and provided a platform for goods and services to reach people on a scale never before seen. For the consumer, the benefits have been nearly limitless, and online services have proven themselves to be a stable and reliable method of exchange. One positive offshoot of cloud based products is telemedicine which has given rise to professional and qualified online doctors who can provide medical assistance to patients in virtually any location. Though telemedicine is a relatively new concept, it's an effective service that's proven itself to provide incredible benefits to the patients it's reaching. At the forefront of this exciting innovation are highly educated and experienced board certified doctors like Dr. Michael Farzam and the Telemedicine Physician Group who provide outstanding treatment options in a convenient and affordable package.
One of the key advantages to telemedicine is its virtually unlimited availability to any patient in nearly any location. Rather than having to worry about commuting times, long, uncomfortable waits in waiting rooms, and the risk of infection for contagious illness at the clinic, patients can now receive treatment from the comfort of their own home. Though it may seem like a surprising figure, the truth is that 70% of all doctor visits are for informational purposes, or a quick diagnosis. Most trips to a clinic or primary care doctor simply result in the ordering of medication to treat the identified ailment. With a telemedicine service, a doctor can evaluate a patient via a secure Internet connection, form an accurate diagnosis, and even fill out a prescription.
In addition to increased convenience, services like Telemedicine Physicians Group save patients money. Unlike traditional healthcare facilities, telemedicine services don't have to maintain costly physical locations, and can pass those savings along to the patient for affordable care. It also allows the patient to have a more personal, one-on-one, direct interaction with the doctor. Many patients prefer these private exchanges over having to discuss private issues in public spaces. Dr. Farzam and Telemedicine Physicians group offer one flat rate for any consultation even if the patient is uninsured.
