Telehealth‌ ‌surge‌ ‌creates‌ opportunity‌ ‌for‌ ‌health‌ ‌plans‌ ‌to‌ ‌improve‌ ‌member‌ engagement‌



Telehealth has been put to the test like never before during the COVID-19 pandemic, and, by most accounts, it has passed with flying colors. The technology has eased the burden on the health care system by allowing patients with non-urgent conditions to receive care and guidance via phone or video chat, and it has proven to be a vital first line of triage as COVID-19 cases spread nationwide. At Carenet Health, during the last two weeks of March alone, we saw an 80% increase in overall telehealth case volume.
