Telemedicine allows health care providers to deliver health services and transmit health information over distance. For patients and their families, telemedicine eliminates time, distance and geography as barriers to health care. For health care professionals and institutions, telemedicine enhances the coordination of service delivery across the continuum of care. For Ontario's health care system, telemedicine is a catalyst for change.
The Ontario Telemedicine Network uses videoconferencing and advanced information communication technologies to deliver clinical, educational and administrative services to more than 360 health care sites province-wide. We engage providers and institutions, manage technologies, foster innovation and deliver telemedicine training.
Secure. Reliable. Responsive. The Ontario Telemedicine Network is poised to meet exponential growth in demand for telemedicine services enabling improved access to a variety of clinical programs and services and new and improved distance learning modalities for health care professionals.
