Skip the Waiting Room: How Telehealth Will Transform Medicine for Patients and Doctors

A patient's and provider's guide to the telehealth revolution

​What if we could see a doctor faster, more efficiently, and at a lower cost? With the emergence of telemedicine, we now can. And this book is a primer on telemedicine for anyone who wants to take charge of their health and understand all their healthcare options.

A mix of patient stories, research, and viewpoints from practicing physicians, Skip the Waiting Room explores telemedicine from all angles. Among other topics, it explains:

- How telehealth will positively change how providers deliver care
- How remote care can expand access to rural and marginalized groups
- What types of care are best suited for telehealth and what types are not
- Why telehealth is not just for the sick

This valuable guide illustrates why telemedicine is not only a viable solution to many of our healthcare problems but also an inevitable and crucial one.
