What does CVT mean in CLINICAL MEDICINE

Clinical Video TeleHealth (CVT) is an example of telemedicine that enables healthcare providers to deliver services remotely, often through the use of video conferencing.

There are many potential benefits to using Clinical Video TeleHealth, including improved access to care, cost savings, and increased patient safety due to reduced risk of exposure. It also eliminates travel time and costs associated with in-person visits.

Many insurance companies now cover CVT visits as they would any other visit provided by a physician. Check with your provider to find out if this type of visit is covered by your plan.

CVT can be used for patients who need access to care but cannot make it into a clinic or hospital due to distance, mobility issues or health concerns related to COVID-19. Physicians can also use this type of technology when consulting on cases with other doctors or specialists across different locations.

The security measures taken depend on the particular system being used, but many systems comply with HIPAA regulations which ensure privacy and confidentiality in accordance with standards set forth by the US government.
