[Me, into smartphone:] “Doctor, it hurts when I do this.”
[Physician, on screen:] “Two things, sir. First, stop doing that. Secondly, how did you get my personal mobile number?”
It’s just another day in the remedial wonderland of telemedicine, tracked assiduously here in the form of the PYMNTS Provider Ranking of Telemedicine Apps. As we check the comparative conditions of this class of apps, we find healthy competition — and a heaping dose of dynamic digital capitalism — working together to tidy up a storm-tossed healthcare delivery system.
The Top 5
Taking it from the top we’ve got Teladoc still at No. 1, and the Doctor On Demand app on call at No. 2 as we left things last time.
Not so at No. 3 with the MyTeleMed app gaining one position, pushing K Health | Primary Care to a very respectable No. 4 in this Provider Ranking of Telemedicine Apps.
Closing out the Top 5 once again is the BetterHelp: Online Counseling & Therapy app at No. 5.
The Top 10
We’ve got movement in the lower half of the rankings, so take your pulse before proceeding.
Gaining two chart positions for this update is the MDLIVE app at No. 6, with Vsee Clinic For Patient right behind at No. 7.
At No. 8 having climbed two spots this month is the InTouch Patient app, followed by Canada’s Maple — 24/7 Online Doctors dropping three spots to land at No. 9 this time out.
Still making the Top 10 cut this month and falling one position from last month is LiveHealth Online Mobile at No. 10, completing this update of the Provider Ranking of Telemedicine Apps.
We’re always on the lookout for opportunities to partner with innovators and disruptors.
