This is where video conferencing and data transfer through phones and the Internet connect doctors to patients. The idea seems to be lagging not because of technical challenges, expense or insufficient need. It appears doctors are holding up the process. According the the New York Times, a recent study by researchers at the University of Texas Medical School in Houston looked at the impact of telemedicine on patients in the intensive care unit.
