Telehealth is the use of digital information and communication technologies, such as computers and mobile devices, to access healthcare services remotely and manage healthcare. Telehealth can be a technology that you use from home or that the doctor uses to improve or support health care services.

Consider, for example, the ways that telehealth could help you if you have diabetes. You could do some or all of the following tasks:

Use a mobile phone or other devices to upload food, medication, dose, and blood glucose records for review by an electronically responding nurse. Watch a video about counting carbohydrates and download an app for it on your phone.

Use the online patient portal to view your test results, schedule appointments, request a prescription refill or email your doctor. Order test supplies and medications online.

Get an outpatient retinal screening at your doctor's office instead of making an appointment with a specialist. Receive email, text, or phone reminders when you need a flu shot, foot exam, or other preventive care.

Make health care accessible to people living in rural or isolated communities. Facilitate services more quickly or efficiently for people with limited mobility, time, or transportation options.

Provide access to specialist doctors. Improve communication and coordination of health care between members of a health care team and the patient. Provide support for self-management of health care.
