The “old way” of specialists providing service to rural communities involved firing up the sedan and hitting the highway. For many physicians who have been in practice for a decade or more, it isn’t uncommon to hear them speak of hours on the road – reducing the number of productive hours they had for seeing patients or completing vital office work – to visit a distant outpost to deliver care to a handful of patients.

As access to broadband internet has become more accessible in rural areas, so has access to innovative healthcare services like Telemedicine.
