For me, telehealth saves a lot of time and money. Rather than having to take time off from work to see a doctor during office hours, you can meet with the doctor quickly online. You can avoid sitting in the doctor’s office or ER and worry about getting sick, which has been particularly helpful recently (although telehealth wait times have been longer than usual because of recent demand). If you have an emergency at night, you may have limited options – such as an urgent-care center or the emergency room, which tend to cost a lot more than doctor’s office visits. Using telehealth can save you money and time and get your care faster.
