Easy access to a consultation is fantastic and the quick response time to the pharmacy to pick up a prescription. That is a great mini-story to help others understand the necessity of telemedicine and telelehealth because it can save time and money. Reimbursement barriers are slowly being taken down with Vermont stepping into offer reimbursements. People want to be taken care of in real time and sometimes that face-to-face consultation is not needed. Solid article!
