Abstract

The use of telemedicine is rapidly expanding and can offer valuable new ways in which patients and their healthcare providers can manage healthcare needs. Physicians may wish to offer telemedicine within their practices to established patients, or physicians may wish to join any number of rapidly growing networks that offer patients access to specialists where such access may have been historically limited, due to geography, cost, or other factors. Whatever the driving force behind the desire to explore the use of telemedicine, physicians should be keenly aware of the legal barriers or limitations prior to initiating or expanding the use of telemedicine in delivering medical care to patients.
