The Use of Telehealth in the Treatment of HIV-AIDS
Main Article Content
Abstract
The use of telehealth in the context of HIV has increased both the timely manner and the quality of the medical services, since it reduces the long commutes towards the attention centers, it avoids the stigmatization often experienced when visiting HIV-specialized centers and it betters the cost-effectiveness of providing timely care. Also the advantages refer to the positive influences that help promote the use of digital tools, amongst which are the reduction of both waiting times and unnecessary visits to health systems and emergency rooms.
