[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 3348550, member: 9374"] There are inherent risks and inability to see/catch certain things from in a telemed visit. This is understood and it is probably pretty highly unlikely anything bad is going to come of it for a clinician. In fact, as long as the clinician is acting in good faith and doing their best, their is next to nothing that can or will be done from this scenario. Try arguing in court your doctor should have been more attentive and thorough when trying to use telemedicine during a viral pandemic that caused a global shutdown and all recommendations everywhere are to limit going outside or anywhere not absolutely necessary. Not likely to go far. In fact, I'd bet most lawyers will tell you any case based exclusively on this isn't worth even taking on. <edit> There's a reason why telemed has been strictly limited in its allowable instances up to this point - because it generally sucks for the patient, even though most will likely see it as more convenient.
