Even though they have evolved since then with fancy screens and even adopting the ‘smart’ moniker, most of us are still accustomed to TVs. It might very well be the most familiar electronic device across generations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Bearing this in mind, while you might zap from one channel to the next in search of your \u003Cem>Game of Thrones\u003C\u002Fem>-shaped needs, what if you could zap to your physician by the same token? You might think that we already have computers, phones and tablets for that; but TVs as a remote care platform are being contemplated by big players in the market. Moreover, its accessibility might cater to the needs of some demographics that would otherwise be left out in the digital health revolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Let’s tune in to see how one of the modern home’s staple devices posits as a remote care platform for the masses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Chr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\u002F>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>Zapping to your doctor with a remote control \u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The concept of turning one’s TV into a remote care hub isn’t new.

Caregivers can also be notified if patients have not been actively using the app. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>If remote care platforms are to operate through TVs, they will need to be compelling enough to be adopted. Having the ability to pair up with caregivers makes it an appropriate option for providing care for the elderly.

Being operated on the familiar TV, such services can make it more comfortable for seniors to employ telemedicine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>To further boost adoption, whether it’s for the elderly or the public at large, other enticing features could be integrated.

This could be expanded in the future to include placing prescription orders from the TV itself.

A common challenge for direct-to-consumer telehealth is that the patient data collected \u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fmorningconsult.com\u002F2021\u002F11\u002F03\u002Fon-demand-telehealth-polling\u002F\" target=\"_blank\">don’t always integrate\u003C\u002Fa> into electronic health records. This should be addressed in order to ensure proper follow-up of patients.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Another barrier is that not every household is equipped with a smart TV. On top of that, patients need to know if their smart TVs have a camera in the first place to be compatible with the telehealth service. To circumvent this issue, an approach similar to the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.healthcarefinancenews.com\u002Fnews\u002Fnew-telehealth-technology-uses-tv-set\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Qortex system from MedSign\u003C\u002Fa> can be adopted. While it requires an internet connection, it does not require a smart TV. Instead, the Qortex box is installed on TVs to provide access to the remote health service. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Concerns might also arise regarding patient privacy, as such a service could double as a monitoring tool in disguise. Will patients know when their smart TV’s camera is activated? Will they have control over it? These questions come in addition to the need to secure patient data over the platform. For its part, \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.theverge.com\u002F2022\u002F1\u002F4\u002F22865640\u002Flg-tv-telehealth-platform-independa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Independa highlights\u003C\u002Fa> that its service is not destined to be a monitoring system. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>They give users control over disabling or declining notifications, while the camera is activated only when a call is accepted or made. “It’s always with dignity and respect,” says the company’s CEO.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Chr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\u002F>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Such opt-in and accessible options can be more welcome by users and help build trust for wider adoption. But a large-scale expansion of remote care through TVs has yet to happen. LG and other healthcare providers might still be testing the waters in this regard.
