Tele health is used to provide treatment to the long term patients through phone or other accessories. They make a appointment to the doctor in online and on that day the doctor will be prescribing the medicine by seeing their reports . It differs from traditional medicine . For example if we go to hospital for seeing cardiologist they will be checking us by hearing heart beat, and by doing echo,etc., tele-health will not be able to provide this and we won’t be able to get the required treatment . It is always better to see doctor in hospital.

Telehealth is a making healthcare accessible, but it’s not as effective as visiting a doctor physically.
