How to get the most out of telehealthcare

1. Make the tech set up beforehand

We all know that the whole telehealthcare services work on technology. Still, many patients take this most important part lightly. They do not finish their online setup till the last minute. Because of which their time and money get wasted. Sometimes it becomes problematic for doctors also as they have to send you a log-in or activation code again and again. Therefore, do not make this mistake. Many hospitals and doctors use different online portals. Patients need an online account at that portal. If you do not know how to use those then learn that beforehand. Do not get depend on others. Also, check your internet connection so that it does not become a problem at the time of appointment. Test the app that you will use beforehand. This will save you and your doctor time and money.

2. Have an alternate option

Even if you have already set up everything and your connection is fast, there is a possibility of a glitch. As many people use telehealthcare these days, therefore, your call or video may face a glitch due to overloading. In this case, have an alternative prepared. For example, you may ask your doctor if FaceTime or WhatsApp can be used in the case of a glitch. It saves your time.

3. Have your history with you

An online appointment is not just a video-call with your doctor. They will need your medical history. Using your history, they can know why you came to them. They need your previous notes, test reports, and x-rays, etc. All of these things must be uploaded on the portal they use. Therefore, upload them beforehand so that you do not waste time at the appointment. Even if your doctor does not tell you to upload the previous documents, have them with you at the time of appointment as they can ask for them anytime. It gives them a better and clearer picture of your problem. 

4. Do not hide any information

Many patients hide information that they think is irrelevant to their present condition. However, it is not true. For example, if someone was on drugs for a couple of years and then stopped taking them. After a couple of years, they got ill and chose telehealthcare. There is a high possibility that they may hide this history of being a drug addict because they feel ashamed. But the truth is that doctor needs to know about this as it may a case where your illness is related to your past. Therefore, do not hide anything from your doctor.
