Pediatric telemedicine

  • Telehealth providers should have clear guidance on when a virtual visit should be converted to a face-to-face visit. Sometimes a telehealth provider may determine that your child needs a more thorough examination, or is too sick to be cared for through telehealth after the telehealth visit has already started. In that case, telehealth providers should know when and how to refer your child to the most appropriate healthcare facility.
