Telemedicine – Health Care From a Distance

Telemedicine is the delivery of health care from a distance using virtual technology. Also known as virtual health care, telemedicine helps people access the care they need when and where they need it.

By maximizing access to care and minimizing travel and wait times, virtual care makes health care delivery more human, efficient, and equitable. Working together with patients, primary care providers, and specialists, we can provide more care options and innovative solutions that help improve access to specialized care and reduces pressure on hospitals.

All Telemedicine appointments must be requested by your health care provider. Nursing support is available for appointments hosted at TBRHSC. If you prefer to not travel for an appointment, just ask your provider if they are able to schedule you a virtual appointment.
