With the development of new technologies used everywhere from the media and advertisement agencies to government agencies, it is no surprise that the telehealth industry is on the rise to improve healthcare in America and globally. Telehealth refers to technology and telecommunications used in the discipline of health care and public health. According to a report by Research and Markets, the global healthcare IT market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 15.9% from 2016 to 2021 and reach $280.25 billion. And just within the US, the overall US telehealth market is projected to grow annually by 29.3% from 2016 to 2021. Additionally, it predicts that within 5 to 7 years telehealth will “become a mainstream health option”. This upward movement in the telehealth market is due to an number of driving factors, from Congress bills to new problems introduced that can be fixed with telehealth.

VA providers can now cross state lines for telemedicine, which will allow them to practice telehealth no matter where the patient is located. The Texas House passed Bill 479 to improve patient outcomes for emergency departments through using telemedicine technology in the back of ambulances that can bring in trauma surgeons to “assess and direct treatment”. CMS is boosting telemedicine by expanding reimbursement options, especially for patients in rural or underserved areas by “paying for more consults and making it easier for providers to bill for them”. In addition to general remote monitoring for chronic conditions, there are also huge implications for use of telemedicine for behavioral health services to cut down wait times, improve compliance, and enhance revenue.
