Due to the coronavirus, telehealth utilization is soaring. Some payers have seen their telehealth utilization increase by 50 times their typical levels within a couple of months.
Payers and providers have clearly signaled that they do not want this upward trend to be restricted to the crisis but to extend beyond the pandemic.
At the Value-Based Care Summit | Telehealth20: Virtual Series, 96 percent of attendees—which included payers, providers, and vendors—reported confidence that the role of telehealth in the healthcare industry would grow and 68 percent had plans to invest in telehealth even as the restrictions begin to lift.
