NTT Data: Many People Still Unaware of Telehealth’s Efficacy
According to a survey from NTT Data Services, it is more likely that more patients will gravitate toward telehealth visits for things like filling prescriptions, addressing cold and flu symptoms, annual check-ups that don’t require in-office testing, and other non-life-threatening needs. Survey respondents also agreed or strongly agreed (67 percent) with the statement that they feel more comfortable in their home when they fell ill, compared to 43 percent who agreed or strongly agreed that they felt more comfortable in the hospital.
