The Top 3 Reasons to Invest in Telehealth Stocks July 26, 2022 - Baystreet.ca Demand for telehealth is on the rise. For one, according to the American Medical Association (AMA), “With the nation in its third year of the, people are under tremendous stress. Even patients who in general have been well-adjusted and healthy, particularly children and adolescents, are finding they need mental health care. Using technology to integrate behavioral health care into primary care settings—settings that patients are visiting on a regular basis for routine care or other medical needs—is a key way to help patients access the mental health care they need in a system that doesn’t have enough providers to meet the demand for behavioral health care.” That alone could help drive significant growth for companies such as Datametrex AI Limited (TSXV: DM) (OTCQB: DTMXF), Teladoc Health Inc. (NYSE: TDOC), WELL Health Technologies Corp. (TSX: WELL) (OTC: WHTCF), Doximity Inc. (NYSE: DOCS), and Uphealth Inc. (NYSE: UPH).

Compared to in-person appointments, healthcare consumers find virtual visits more convenient because they don't have to leave home (41 percent), they don't have to cover transportation costs (37 percent), and they save time (37 percent). Three, as also noted by the AMA, “Telehealth is critical to the future of health care, which is why the AMA continues to lead the charge to aggressively expand telehealth policy, research and resources to ensure physician practice sustainability and fair payment.” Look at Datametrex AI Limited (TSXV: DM) (OTCQB: DTMXF), For Example Datametrex AI Limited announced that the Company’s wholly owned telehealth subsidiary, Medi-Call Inc., introduces Mental Health services.

Further data shows patients had greater comfort levels with virtual behavioural healthcare over in-person. 24 percent of patients liked the idea of being able to remain in the comfort of their own home receving care, 18 percent liked virtual care for the ease of attending sessions from anywhere, and 15 percent felt like they can be more open and honest virtually about their mental health concerns than in person.

Dr. Vincent Fung, Dr. Reem Habtezion and Dr. Dale Raj Dhillon joined Dr. Omar Sharif, advancing Medi-Call further into the healthcare and telehealth space. “We are thrilled to be expanding Medi-Call by adding new mental health services and adding more physicians to the team. We expect Medi-Call to continue to gain traction. Ensuring we are staffed sufficiently is a priority, so patients’ needs are met”, said Marshall Gunter, CEO of the Company. “According to the latest Canadian statistics, the mental health crisis continues to plague Canadians at an alarming rate. Some groups in particular include our youth, minorities and the elderly. In addition, those reporting poor mental health are 400% more likely to report increased substance use since before the pandemic. We believe that our robust practitioners and accelerated access to care will help to combat this problem”, said Dr. Omar Sharif, Chief Medical Officer of the Company. Other related developments from around the markets include: Teladoc Health Inc. released new findings showing that managing multiple chronic conditions with a single, integrated approach leads to better control of A1c, systolic blood pressure and weight better than any diabetes, hypertension or weight control program alone.

These results position Teladoc Health to move further into value-based care with “full fees at risk” outcomes-based performance guarantees. According to the CDC, more than 40% of adults in the U.S. have two or more chronic conditions, making Teladoc Health’s findings relevant for millions of Americans.
