A telemedicine physician provides remote patient care through virtual communication channels – either live via video consult, telephone, or online chat, or at a later time through written communication. Telemedicine physicians can work part-time or full-time. Telemedicine physicians utilize virtual communication channels to provide remote medical services to patients with common illnesses and chronic health conditions. They diagnose and treat non-threatening illnesses, assist chronically ill patients in managing their conditions, and monitor patients recovering from recent surgeries. The telemedicine physician’s responsibilities include monitoring prescription medication usage, performing prescription renewals, and referring patients to other physicians or health care specialists as needed. You should also be able to address patients’ concerns regarding the use of telemedicine services. To be successful as a telemedicine physician, you should be detail-oriented and able to communicate with patients effectively through various virtual communication channels.
