Branham Group Releases Report on Telehealth

This comprehensive report takes an in-depth look at the Telehealth market and the success in has achieved in Canada

- Ottawa, Ontario - Branham Group Inc., a leading global Information and Communication Technology (ICT) analyst and strategic marketing consultancy, recently released a report on the Success of Telehealth in Canada.

The report discusses the field of Telehealth, which is rapidly gaining momentum as a proven and essential technology that is helping to reduce laboratory expenses, improve operational efficiency, enhance productivity, and improve treatment decisions and patient care. Telehealth adds a new paradigm in health care, and has shown to significantly reduce hospitalizations and visits to the Emergency Room, while also being able to improve the patient's quality of life. Telehealth also benefits patients where traditional delivery of health services is affected by distance and lack of local specialist clinicians to deliver services.

"Telehealth supports the evolution of health care in Canada and is a key success story in our efforts to leverage technology to reduce the burden on our health care system," says Wayne Gudbranson, President and CEO of Branham Group. "Telehealth helps to make up for shortage of skilled manpower, provide access to personalized treatment plans, and make medical expertise available to all Canadians, irrespective of where they are located. We are amongst the leaders in the world in leveraging telehealth and it is a matter of time before telehealth becomes fully integrated in our health care delivery model."

The report has been produced as part of Branham's Digital Health NOW offering, which provides unbiased information and analysis of trends in Digital Health, and an in-depth analysis on the current state of Digital Health deployment in Canadian healthcare organizations.
