Telehealth Equity

Telehealth equity means ensuring all individuals have fair access to healthcare services through digital means, regardless of their income, location, age, language, or technological skills. It aims to remove barriers like lack of internet, devices, or digital literacy so that everyone can benefit from remote medical care, mental health support, and health information. Achieving telehealth equity helps reduce healthcare disparities, ensuring that advances in technology improve health outcomes for all communities, especially those traditionally underserved or facing obstacles to traditional healthcare access.
