What are the Challenges of Telehealth in Epidemiology?
Despite its benefits, telehealth also presents some challenges:
Privacy and Security: Ensuring the privacy and security of patient data is a significant concern, especially given the sensitive nature of health information. Digital Divide: Not all populations have equal access to the technology required for telehealth, leading to potential disparities in healthcare access and data collection. Regulatory Issues: Telehealth practices must comply with various regulations and standards, which can vary by region and may complicate the implementation of telehealth solutions.
