The latest insights
Virtual health: a new reality for patient care
Virtual health is nothing new. In 1879, just three years after the telephone was invented, an article in The Lancet recorded the first ever remote consultation: A doctor listened to a child's cough over the phone, offered a diagnosis ("It's not the croup") and treatment ("Settle down and get some sleep").
But the last three months have seen a revolution in remote and virtual health, with the attitudes of both users and providers changing beyond recognition.
