What is Virtual Care?
Online therapy (telehealth, telemedicine, online care, or online counseling) may be the health support you’ve been looking for. Telehealth vs. Telemedicine. Telehealth and telemedicine include the use of computers, videoconferencing, and smartphone applications to bridge the gap of distance between provider and patient. Telehealth is an excellent option during Covid-19. Telemedicine relates to a specific category of clinical services provided to patients over some telecommunication technology. Telehealth represents a much wider range of virtual health services that are not just clinical.

Telemedicine falls under this umbrella, as it is the more accurate description of medical assistance provided in this manner.
