The research showed that only 17 per cent of healthcare providers are sure that most of their clinicians that conduct remote sessions have clear insight into how their patients’ data is protected. About 54 per cent of respondents admit that some of their clinicians conduct remote sessions using apps not specifically designed for telehealth, such as FaceTime, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Zoom, and others, the report informs.
