Article on the Reach of Telemedicine Highlights Several Advantages of Virtual Care, Notes Dr. Michael Farzam
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) December 10, 2015 -- According to an article published December 6th on MiBiz.com, a telemedicine service launched by a Michigan-based medical network has been shown to not only offer patients an efficient way to speak to a doctor, but also expand access to care for those who may not normally have convenient access to a hospital. While the service discussed in the article is a relatively recent start-up, Dr. Michael Farzam in Los Angeles has long offered similar services to his patients who have come to count on these unconventional, yet effective, methods of providing medical care. He explains that his service, Telemedicine Physician Group, just like similar services around the country, is able to help patients by providing them with care that is efficient and convenient, but also attainable for those who might not have convenient access to a hospital:
• Efficiency – Dr. Farzam explains that telemedicine can be more efficient than conventional medical care, both in terms of time and cost. He explains that the proliferation of digital video calls and other methods of communication have made it possible for doctors and patients to instantly connect and discuss medical concerns. This is perfect for anyone on a busy schedule, but also those who need a quick answer to a non-life threatening medical problem. Dr. Farzam also explains that the convenience on the part of the physician allows Telemedicine Physician Group to offer their medical care for only $150 per visit. Dr. Farzam explains that this gives patients the option of receiving care that is much more convenient than a hospital or ER visit, while also paying far less than most insurance deductibles.
• Wide Reach – Because he has spent years as a practicing house call doctor in the Los Angeles area, Dr. Farzam knows full well the wide range of places where potential patients may live in sprawling L.A. County. Yet, there are many situations where it is too time-consuming for the patient to travel to the doctor, or vice versa. Dr. Farzam says that the joy of telemedicine is that patients can still receive high-quality care, even if the nearest reputable doctor is many miles away.
Especially for those needing a diagnosis or a prescription for a new or existing condition, Dr. Farzam concludes that virtual care with Telemedicine Physician Group is a fantastic option for patients in or out of the Los Angeles area.
