US Telemedicine Market Executive Summary

US telemedicine market size is at around $25.54 Bn in 2022 and is projected to reach $84.88 Bn in 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 16.2% during the forecast period. Telemedicine is a method of obtaining healthcare visits with doctors, psychiatrists, or nurses over the Internet using your phone or computer. These meetings are typically video calls via an app or platform, while some providers also offer online chat messaging, email help, and phone calls. The goal of telemedicine is not to replace doctor appointments at clinics. Instead, they should be used to supplement traditional healthcare.

The telemedicine market in the US is quickly expanding, driven by technological improvements, changes in healthcare delivery methods, and increased demand for access to healthcare services. Telemedicine is becoming more widely employed in a variety of medical specialties, including primary care, mental health, and specialty care.
