Abstract
Telehealth made a wide appearance in the medical industry during the Covid-19 pandemic due to the necessary decrease of physical interaction. It has continued to thrive and populate more patients since then. The benefits of telemedicine include quick, reliable one-onone sessions with a healthcare provider virtually, and is overall less costly compared to in person visits. Seeing a medical provider online is helpful in aiding patient recovery and management of chronic diseases. It is used to significantly improve the quality of life in the patients seen today. A literature review was conducted using databases such as PubMed and ScienceDirect. Papers that were included discussed whether telemedicine was effective in the case of recovery from a chronic disease. Thirteen reliable sources were included in this research review. Results concluded that telemedicine is an efficient and effective tool in the management of specific chronic diseases.
