Tele-emergency is the urgent care component of telehealth, services consisting of diagnosis, treatment, assessment, monitoring, communications and education of medical conditions via digital technologies like videoconferencing. Telehealth can deliver important medical services where they are needed most, and remove barriers of time, distance and limited health care providers. This includes remote, rural areas and medically underserved urban communities.
