Expert Insight

Think telehealth is going away? Think again.

Telehealth was once seen as a pandemic-era measure, but it's here to stay. Despite initial skepticism, patients continue to embrace telehealth for its convenience and accessibility — and healthcare leaders are investing in virtual care models to support the workforce and improve care coordination. After four years of experimenting with telehealth, we now have a better idea of what it can do.

Healthcare leaders have been debating the lasting impact of telehealth since its rapid expansion in 2020. Do patients like it? Does it improve health outcomes? How will we get paid for it? But the biggest questions were around the longevity and usefulness of telehealth. In short: Will telehealth have a lasting impact on healthcare?

Headlines earlier this year seemed to suggest that telehealth was a pandemic-era measure that couldn’t deliver on its promises. We saw big retailers bailing on their virtual care offerings1 and heard concerns about the pending end to the pandemic-era flexibilities.2

But the headlines are misleading. Telehealth isn’t a complete failure, and we’ve learned a lot about it. The industry has had four years to try telehealth in new ways, and now we have a better idea of what telehealth is and isn’t.
