Telemedical record documentation
1Histopathological Laboratory, Wiesbaden, Germany.
Abstract:
Telemedicine is rapidly evolving into a viable method of delivering health care. As programs become more active, healthcare organizations must examine policies and procedures to assure they meet the needs of the changing complexities of healthcare delivery. Telemedicine, or providing health care from a distance, brings with it a new dimension that complicates a number of unresolved issues. Reimbursement and telemedicolegal concerns particularly bring into focus the need for quality documentation for telemedicine. A proposed telemedical record model provides guidelines to ensure consistent, accurate, timely, and nonduplicative documentation of teleconsultations in any telehealth scenario.
