HealthTap Launches Virtual Care Certification Program For Doctors

Virtual care is on the rise – more than 200 million people used virtual care services in 2015, and it is estimated that more than 50 percent of doctor visits could be converted to virtual appointments.

Parks Associates predict that video consultations will be increasing by 118.5% per year through 2018. Constituting far more than just “telemedicine” or providing care remotely over video or the telephone, Virtual Care is an entirely new and comprehensive way to practice medicine.
