Telemedicine utilizes electronic information and telecommunication technology to support long distance health care. The doctor is in one location the patient is in another location, and the doctor can do a consult electronically.

It’s the future of medicine and the Department of Mental Health along with several partners has seen success with their telepsychiatry initiative. One of those partners, USC School of Medicine, is training their students in telepsychiatry and we learn that it’s not only helping patients, but it is invaluable for these students and the future of medical technology.

To learn more about telepsychiatry, watch Palmetto Scene, September 25th at 7:30 PM.
