  1. Telehealth and impact on Pain Management

  2. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a dramatic and sudden change in access to healthcare forcing a greater emphasis on telehealth. In just about a year the United States entered into a variety of voluntary and mandatory lockdown measures in response to COVID-19. This has forced the face of healthcare to change almost overnight. • Pain is mostly undertreated in the United States, due to several barriers such as: • Geographic distance from specialty treatment providers. • A functional disability that limits mobility. • Treatment-related stigma. • Economic limitations and • Educational barriers. • Pain under-treatment worsens the chronicity of pain and emotional disruption that can significantly erode a pain patient's quality of life. The growing field of telehealth offers a novel opportunity to expand pain assessment, consultation, and treatment services beyond the walls of the specialty pain clinic. But there is limited availability of resources describing how to best use this technology to improve access to care.

  3. What is Telehealth? • Telehealth refers to the use of digital information and communication technologies, including computers and mobile devices, to access health care services remotely and manage your health care. These may be some of the technologies you use in daily life or that your doctor uses to improve or support health care services. • Using telehealth services, you can send your health data to your doctor from home. Your healthcare providers can tailor your treatment as per your needs with more data and improve the care you receive. • With the help of telehealth devices, you can send your vitals such as your heart rate, glucose levels, or blood pressure from home. All health data provided to telehealth providers is confidential, secure, and used only with your consent. • The telehealth process is simple. The process involves: • Request a virtual appointment. • Your healthcare provider sends a calendar invite with a link to digital registration. • You complete the forms using the link provided. • Meet your doctor online on the specified date and time.

  4. How does telehealth work? • Your telehealth platform offers various services including: • Two-way, high-definition video: Using videoconferencing to have a face-to-face meeting with your doctor as if you’re sitting together in their office. • Digital patient registration: Registering online and submit your symptoms, allergies, medications, medical history, and ID cards before your first teleconference visit with your doctor. This helps the doctor to better understand the problem and provide tailored treatment. • Prescription management: Your doctor manages your medications as well as sends your prescriptions electronically to your preferred pharmacy. • Secure online payment: Telehealth software allows you to send your payment securely online. • Continue to Read More Click Here
