Telehealth (Pt 1): What is the Gold Standard in Pelvic Health?

Is virtual therapy just as good as in-person care?In this episode, we tackle one of the most important — and controversial — conversations in pelvic health right now: the role of telehealth and virtual care in our specialty. What’s appropriate? Where is our field going? What do the therapists in the trenches think?  And what is actually best for our patients?We dive into:The difference between the different types of telehealth, including remote consults, online programs, virtual therapy, and hybrid modelsResults of a poll of more than 500 pelvic rehab providersWhat the evidence actually says about the efficacy of telehealthThe challenges of doing telehealth when we have no structure around itWhy “access to care” shouldn’t be used as a blanket justificationOur own experience with hundreds of patients who’ve done both virtual and in-person careWhy in-person care remains the gold standard👉 We're hoping this is one of those BIG episodes that resets our language aroudn an issue and allows us to have a better discussion.   If you've ever struggled with how to talk about telehealth — or felt frustrated with what you're seeing in the field — this is the episode to listen to.About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health.   PelvicSanity Physical Therapy (www.pelvicsanity.com) together in 2016.  It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country.Through Pelvic PT Rising, Nicole has created clinical courses (www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical) to help pelvic health providers gain confidence in their skills and provide frameworks to get better patient outcomes.  Together, Jesse and Nicole have helped 700+ pelvic practices start and grow through the Pelvic PT Rising Business Programs (www.pelvicptrising.com/business) to build a practice that works for them! Get in Touch!Learn more at www.pelvicptrising.com, follow Nicole @nicolecozeandpt (www.instagram.com/nicolecozeandpt) or reach out via email ([email protected]).Check out our Clinical Courses, Business Resources and learn more about us at Pelvic PT Rising...Let's Continue to Rise!
