Telehealth appointments are an essential service that many patients rely on. By making a telehealth appointment, you can save time and money by reaching out to medical services right from the comfort of your own home. Here are three advantages you can expect when making telehealth appointments.

1. Greater Savings

One of the key reasons why patients may avoid making a doctor's appointment is that it can be challenging financially. Not only do patients need to pay a copay, but they also need to pay for gas and take time off from work depending on when they're able to make the appointment. By scheduling telehealth appointments, you can save your PTO, your gas, and your budget. KAMs Mobile Health also offers new patient discounts, so you can feel confident knowing your care will be affordable.

2. Greater Convenience

There is no denying that convenience is appreciated by patients. According to Single Care, about 60% of doctors report that telehealth is not only a convenient way to reach patients across geographical locations, but it is also easy to use. Eliminating barriers to treatment is better for both patients and doctors.

When patients can cut down on the travel time to their provider, it makes healthcare far more convenient. You can use telehealth services during breaks at work or on your lunch to reduce the number of lost hours from work. What's more, telehealth appointments also reduce wait time, so patients don't have to put their lives on pause while sitting in the waiting room of their doctor's office.

3. Fewer Cancellations

Cancellations can be frustrating for patients, but they may be necessary if they're unable to take time off from work or if something comes up too close to their appointment time. As a result, you may need to pay a cancellation fee at your doctor's office or reschedule your appointment weeks out due to lack of availability. With telehealth appointments, you can reduce the risk of having to make a cancellation because you're removing obstacles around your appointment time. What's more, if you do need to cancel your appointment, you can rest assured that you don't need to wait as long to reschedule at a time that works best for you.
