Telehealth is an area of medicine which has magnified the ability to treat patients remotely. Presently the education of medical professionals pertaining to the value, use, and implementation of telehealth is not adequate to harness the potential of available technologies. Patients engaging in telehealth experience time and cost savings, improved disease management through remote monitoring programs, and high-quality care regardless of geographic location. Despite this, medical education has been slow to evolve. It is therefore imperative that medical curricula incorporate training for this rapidly advancing mode of healthcare delivery to enable students to best care for their future patient population.
远程医疗是医学领域中一项极大地提升了远程治疗患者能力的技术。目前,医学专业人员在远程医疗的价值、使用和实施方面的教育不足以充分发挥现有技术的潜力。参与远程医疗的患者节省了时间和成本,通过远程监测项目改善了疾病管理,并且无论地理位置如何都能获得高质量的护理。尽管如此,医学教育的发展却很缓慢。因此,医学课程必须纳入针对这种快速发展的医疗服务模式的培训,以使学生能够更好地照顾他们未来的患者群体。
