Telemedicine, according to a Google search is “the remote diagnosis and treatment of patients by means of telecommunications technology.”

Telemedicine is a modern and extremely convenient way for people to see a doctor without physically going to a clinic or a hospital to see a doctor in person.

There are many different ways that telemedicine can be used, this includes telephone, email, wireless apps, two way video conferences, smart phones and many other forms of advanced technology in the world of telecommunications.

The use of telemedicine has become quite popular over the past forty years. It began as a way in which hospitals were able to care for patients in far away and remote locations and is now a part of hospital operations, private practices, specialty departments, the homes and workplaces of consumers as well as home health agencies around the world.

American Telemedicine Association

Telemedicine and telehealth have been considered historically by the American Telemedicine Association (ATA) as terms which are interchangeable and they cover a definition of remote health care which is quite broad . Transmitting still images, monitoring vital signs via remote, wireless applications which are consumer focused, video conferencing techniques for patient consultations, nursing call centers, and many other applications are all vital parts of telehealth and telemedicine.

Although many times the term telehealth can be used in reference of a more broad definition of healthcare which is remote and may not always have to do with clinical services, the terms are used by ATA in a similar way as someone could make reference to health or medicine in the language.

The term HIT (health information technology) is closely allied to telemedicine. That being said, health information technology tends to more commonly refer to electronic medical records and other information systems services which are related and telemedicine tends to refer to the use of technology to to actually deliver medical and clinical services to remote areas.
