Telemedicine
Telemedicine or teleconsultation is a type of remote medical care that uses information and communication technologies, used at Cornel to offer consultations and follow-up to patients without them having to be physically present in the office or clinic. It can be carried out by video calls, phone calls, online chats or even exchanging messages through secure platforms.
This type of consultation is very useful in several situations, such as:
Access to medical services in remote areas: Patients in rural or remote areas can receive care without having to travel long distances.
Primary care: It allows non-critical or essential situations to be addressed without the patient having to wait for an in-person consultation.
Time saving: For both patients and Cornel, teleconsultation can be more efficient in terms of time, avoiding travel and waiting times in these first consultations with the specialist.
It is important to highlight that teleconsultations are carried out through secure platforms and with the informed consent of each patient.
WHEN IS IT NECESSARY TO TRAVEL TO THE CONSULTATION?
Travel to the clinic will depend on the type of treatment. In cases that require surgery prior to treatment, all tests and analyses prior to the intervention will be sent and evaluated remotely, but you must go to the clinic on the day of the intervention.
