SubscribeThe digitization of healthcare has actually added complexity to the physician's day. The primary element of healthcare should be the visit between patient and doctor, whether it’s online, a call or whether they come in. With the advent of EMRs, we now have a third element in the room. A computer that actually interrupts, that relationship because the doctor's sitting there typing on a computer instead of looking at that person.

At the outset of Covid there were lots of warnings about mental health. Some of my colleagues, friends and family members who had never thought about seeing or talking to somebody have all leveraged telehealth mental health services.
