Question

Summrize The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported a 154% increase in telehealth visits during the last week of March 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. This surge can be attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced many healthcare providers to limit in-person visits to reduce the risk of virus transmission. Telehealth, or the use of digital information and communication technologies to access health care services remotely, became a viable alternative. It allowed patients to consult with their healthcare providers from the safety of their homes, thus maintaining social distancing guidelines. The increase in usage also indicates the adaptability of both healthcare providers and patients to new methods of service delivery in response to unprecedented circumstances.
