Now, let’s explore some of these features in detail

### 5 Telemedicine App Features for Patients

The patient’s app is for the users to make an appointment, add symptoms, and get a consultation from doctors.

1.

#### Schedule Appointments With Doctors, Practitioners, or Therapists

    With this feature, your telehealth app users (patients) can book appointments from a wide range of doctors, physicians, nurses, or practitioners as per their requirements. Also you can [develop a doctor appointment booking app](https://www.spaceotechnologies.com/blog/how-to-develop-a-doctor-appointment-app/) just for this specific functionality.

    ![Telemedicine-App-Development](https://www.spaceotechnologies.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Telemedicine-App-Development.png)

    Source: Google Play

    By including this feature, you can make it easy for them to find doctors on-demand. A well-developed online telemedicine platform for digital health can connect patients in minutes with senior doctors as per their needs.
2.

#### Video Consultation With Doctors, Nurses, or Practitioners

    The telemedicine apps provides a convenient and quick way for patients. With two-way communication, patients or app users can easily connect with experienced doctors, nurses, and practitioners. If you are planning to develop a successful virtual clinic or telehealth app for your customers, then the schedule live session feature is important in order to connect with patients and physicians.

    ![Telemedicine-Apps](https://www.spaceotechnologies.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Telemedicine-Apps.png)

    The virtual medical care app shows all the professionals and connects patients and doctors virtually. Instead of going to the urgent medical treatment provider, the mHealth (mobile health) app can help patients to a great extent. With a doctor’s on-demand app, patients can consult for a wide range of diseases like acne, allergies, cold/flu, sinus infections, ear problems, severe headaches, or any other concerns of behavioral health.
3.

#### In-App Chat

    The mHealth (mobile health) app provides every medical treatment virtually as per the convenience of your users. There would be no hurdle in the way of virtual medical treatment; the in-app chat feature is another powerful feature, which can easily connect your users (patients) to experienced doctors. There are patients, who could not consult through video conferencing to doctors, so you can give the in-app messaging option for an instant consultation.

    ![In-app-Chat](https://www.spaceotechnologies.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/In-app-Chat.png)

    Image Credits: talkspace
    Source: Google Play

    When the patient is having a cough or just a cold, then they can go with the in-app chat option. Also, you can also provide a wide number of options in the in-app messaging chat like recording a video, take a photo, and record a video message. In addition, patients can also get their prescriptions through the in-app messaging option.
4.

#### Organize & Track Health Patient Information in One Convenient Place

    The next important feature is to allow users to organize and track health information of themselves. For patients who have long treatment like heart disease, assembling medical health records is essential for them. So, such a feature comes from there. However, first, it looks like a basic feature, but it actually plays an important role in the lives of patients.

    ![MyHealth](https://www.spaceotechnologies.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/MyHealth-app.png)

    Image Credits: mdlive
    Source: Google Play

    By providing such an online digital health platform where they can organize and track their patient records, you can simplify their lives. If you have not yet included such features, then there’s still time to include it.
5.

#### Prescriptions Sent Automatically to Nearby Pharmacy

    Another important feature that can make your custom telemedicine application stand out is to make things seamless for every age group of users. Once the patient is done with a consultation with the doctor, you can prescribe medicine to the nearby pharmacy and get it delivered to their places. Strategic [medicine delivery app development](https://www.spaceotechnologies.com/blog/medicine-delivery-app-development/) and [pharmacy app development](https://www.spaceotechnologies.com/blog/pharmacy-app-development/) can transform your telemedicine app into a comprehensive healthcare platform, offering features like e-prescription management, medication reminders, pharmacy location tracking, real-time delivery updates, and seamless prescription-to-delivery workflows.

### 4 Telemedicine App Features for Doctors

The doctor’s App is for doctors to communicate with their patients. They can also organize their schedules and manage their virtual and walk-in appointments accordingly. Some of the common features based on Hippa comliant doctor’s app are:

1.

#### Accept/ Reject Appointment

    The patients have an option to send an appointment request to healthcare providers like doctors and therapists. The telemedicine application for doctors must have a feature to either accept or reject such requests based on their schedule. They can also have a list of accepted and rejected appointments to keep track of history.
2.

#### Video Calls

    This feature is extremely important when you develop a telemedicine application. This feature of video calls is the same as the patient’s app and is used to treat patients virtually. These virtual healthcare appointments make up the most essential part of the telemedicine platform. The doctors can communicate with their patients through video calls and collect information about the symptoms to assist them in their health issues.
3.

#### In-app Chat

    Another feature of the telemedicine app for healthcare providers or doctors and patients is in-app chat. Even if the patients and doctors are not available at the same time, they can still be in contact via chat or text messages. Such telemedicine apps are very popular in the United States because people are always available in real-time.

    The doctor can give telehealth services to the patient even discuss brief medical history, review their tests & treatment plans, and resolve any queries regarding prescribed medicines without the patients having to visit the doctor.
4.

#### Appointment Calendar

    While developing a telemedicine app, another feature for the target audience of doctors and patients is the appointment calendar. A doctor can keep track of all the appointments whether daily, weekly, or monthly via telemedicine applications. It makes it easy for the doctor to manage their schedule.

    If you are all set to develop a virtual medical app, make sure to embrace such features while developing a doctor appointment app.

## Benefits of Telemedicine App Development

The following section includes the top benefits of telemedicine apps that you should know.

### 3 Benefits of Telemedicine App Development for Patients

1.

#### Convenience

    Who likes to wait in a queue? No one. Do patients and doctor’s time always coincide? On-demand telemedicine app or telehealth apps make it very convenient for patients to get treatment at any time they want. Video call or in-app chat features keep the doctor and patient connected at all times. If the patient is worried about getting infected while going to the doctor, it is advisable to book a virtual appointment.

    Further, the time for traveling to the clinic can also be saved, and the patient can do other tasks in the free time.
2.

#### Quality of service

    The telemedicine platform is also known for a better quality of service. Appointments are rarely delayed and the doctors can also give complete attention to one patient at a time. The patients won’t have to stand in a queue or wait for their token number. Everything becomes streamlined with telemedicine solutions.
3.

#### Saves cost

    One of the most important factors that impact healthcare decisions is the cost of healthcare services. Though people have access to healthcare, most people would not go for a doctor’s consultation because it can cost too much and they feel that they can’t spend this much. Telemedicine app development or telehealth solution has made many of the telemedicine services directly on a mobile app and that makes it affordable to most people.For healthcare providers looking to offer these solutions, understanding [custom healthcare app development cost](https://www.spaceotechnologies.com/blog/healthcare-app-development-cost/) is essential for planning and budgeting.

    Moreover, patients also save money on commuting to the clinic if they have a virtual appointment. Weekly consultations can be heavy on the pocket but with a telemedicine app, the cost is reduced drastically.

### 3 Benefits of Telemedicine App Development for Doctors

1.

#### Time management

    Ask any doctor about work-life balance and they’ll say they have almost none. Many appointments take longer time than expected and doctors can not turn away the patients next in line. It is a huge task to manage time for doctors. Telemedicine app development comes as a boon in such cases. With marked calendars and virtual appointments, they can choose to invest their time in the way they want.
2.

#### Recordkeeping

    This benefit is for the doctors as well as other healthcare professionals like nurses and office administrators. Record-keeping becomes completely digitized and automated. There is no need to look for patient data in different files as everything is stored at one central location. The doctors can manage patients’ medical history, patient health data and prescription with just a click.
3.

#### Patient management

    From appointment to diagnosis to treatment and payment, every part of the patient management process can be handled just on the fingertips. The doctors can even manage the dosage of drugs and monitor health conditions if the telemedicine app has such advanced features.
