The emergence of hybrid teledermatology, the rise in skin diseases like psoriasis, eczema, and skin cancer, the lack of dermatologists and other qualified healthcare professionals who can provide specialized dermatological care, and technological developments in teledermatology products and the introduction of new dermatology services are the main factors propelling the market
Teledermatology is a new and emerging type of care delivery in which telecommunication technologies are utilized to transmit dermatology-related medical information over a long distance via voice, video, and data transmission.
Asynchronous (store-and-forward) segment dominates the teledermatology market, with hybrid teledermatology expected to gain traction in the coming years
Store-and-forward (SAF) teledermatology permits photos and other health-related information to be transmitted from a patient to a provider/clinician or from one provider/clinician to another using telehealth software for evaluation. Some of the primary elements driving its demand include reduced consultation wait times, expedited treatment of urgent patients, efficient management of a higher volume of patient cases, and improved patient satisfaction. However, a crucial problem that is predicted to hinder its adoption is the absence of real-time input on patient queries/concerns.
In the future years, hybrid teledermatology is projected to gain traction. It combines real-time and store-and-forward teledermatology components. Patients may receive insights from real-time talks and benefit from the completeness of asynchronous data sharing by using the hybrid method, which allows them to choose the mode of consultation that best suits them. The method shortens wait times, improves access to care, and increases patient satisfaction.
Technological advancements and the launch of new Teledermatology services drive the Teledermatology Market
Over the years, the Teledermatology industry has seen a lot of technical breakthroughs and the introduction of new services. These advancements are anticipated to fuel the teledermatology industry in the future years.
