Telehealth Software Services: Scope and Development

With the advancement of technologies in different industries every day, the healthcare sector is not very far away either. Every day in the healthcare sector a new technology is growing. This time we will be talking about Telehealth software. The software has not been around very long but it has made its mark. The question arises now, what is Telehealth? Let’s find out.

What is Telehealth?

Telehealth refers to the transfer of medical information between a patient and health care provider. The process consists of the transfer of patient information such as patient medical files, images, video conferencing, monitoring of patients, use of wearable devices, etc. Telehealth is used to enhance patient care services, patient experience, etc. Telehealth has become an integral part of society and it is just the beginning of something much bigger. 

The sole purpose of telehealth application development is to enhance the levels of communication between patients and doctors and to transfer data safely and easily. SISGAIN provides you with a telehealth software system that is not only easy to use but can be used anywhere and at all times. Our software can easily be used by people of all age groups. With the help of our application, patients can discuss their symptoms, issues, etc with their doctors via virtual communication. These communications can be done on a laptop, phone, or via webcams. Doctors can also prescribe their patients with medical tests, medical prescriptions and even suggest future treatment plans with them. 

Now, What does The Telehealth Software Come With?

Wait till you read them because there’s a whole lot of things waiting for you.

1. The software can be useful for people who live in far off places. The Internet is everywhere, but hospitals are not. So with the help of this software, anyone can gain access to specialist doctors and get their queries cleared. 

2. The software saves a whole lot of time.

“Time is the key to a successful life they say”. Indeed it is. Nobody wants to waste time travelling to a hospital. If you use telehealth software, you are gonna save a lot of it. Our software lets you book everything online. That is from your first appointment to the last one. All you have to do is click on the option that says, “Online appointment.” That’s it. You’re done. You have an appointment with the doctor of your choice. It does not even take five minutes. 

3. Not just patients, doctors can select the time they are comfortable to attend a meeting. With the help of our software, doctors can choose to set up an appointment whenever they like. 

4. Sometimes we all don’t want to go to a doctors appointment because we all are lazy. Yes! I said it out loud. Accept that you are just as lazy as everyone else. But sometimes we have to visit a doctor because health comes first. In these lazy moments, you can just set up online and talk to your doctor about everything.

5. So you need a specialist but there aren’t any in the hospital near your home? Lucky you, you don’t live in the 1800s. Our software searches the specialist of your choice, from thousands of options, you can find the one...doctor for you. Feels good to get what you want, right?

Benefits for patients

Yes, there is more.

1. Cost reduction - Saving money is everyone’s goal. But you shouldn’t save it when it’s a matter of your health. But what if I tell you you can get the best treatment at the best price. Yesss! With the use of our mobile telehealth solutions, patients can sit at home and receive medical advice from top doctors. You save your travel expenses and the extra money hospitals charge you for a bed.

2. Builds your trust - Sometimes patients have to wait for many hours to get a doctor to look at them, that really sucks. What patients really want is to meet a doctor, talk to them openly about their symptoms and get a prescription. Since we have a really good telehealth app development service, we give you just that. You can connect with your doctor anytime you like and talk about anything you want.

Benefits for doctors

What do doctors get out of this? A lot.

1. Increased revenues - We are back to talking about saving money. With the use of our telehealth software, doctors can cut down on the extra expenses they pay to provide medical care in hospitals. Doctors can save money on cutting down hospital beds, waiting areas, patient medical files, etc. This directly saves a lot of money for the hospital the doctors work for.

2. Less risky - How is providing medical care risky? It can be risky in some cases. The number of patients in the waiting area waiting to consult with a doctor is huge. Some have a fever, some have a cold, some carry other diseases. This can be a little risky for people who are in better health. Since we have one of the best telehealth software, with our system the doctor can connect with patients online. And let’s be honest, germs can not travel through screens.

3. Increased patient engagement - Patient engagement, how does this help doctors? Well, a doctor can monitor their patients 24/7 with the help of our telehealth software system and eventually the patient spends time working towards getting better, they learn a lot of things, and slowly they turn to a healthier lifestyle. This increases the doctor’s and the hospital’s success rate with patients, easily increasing the number of patients opting for the same doctor and hospital every day. 

Conclusion

Telehealth software has taken over the healthcare sector in only some years. The applications are simple and efficient, they can help the patients, report their symptoms and work nonstop for 24 hours a day but they can sometimes take weeks or months to build according to the hospital's needs. But if the end product is this helpful, time should not matter so much.
