The North American telehealth market is expected to grow at an annual compound growth rate of 24.3% from 2018 ($2,572.9 million) to 2024 ($9,496.6 million).

To be successful with the telehealth explosion, several areas of importance include:

  • Maintaining a patient focus of data across the healthcare enterprise

  • Coordinated approach so all clinicians have access to information

  • Ensure systems are flexible and usable

The rapidly changing telehealth landscape requires health systems and healthcare innovators to routinely develop, review and update their strategic plan.
