The telehealth boom is healthier than ever. In fact, according to Technavio, telehealth could become a $109.98 billion market by 2025. Most of that will be driven by increased care needs for chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular issues, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, asthma, and diabetes to name a few. That could be beneficial for companies such as Datametrex AI Limited (TSXV: DM) (OTCQB: DTMXF), Teladoc Health Inc. (NYSE: TDOC), WELL Health Technologies Corp. (TSX: WELL) (OTC: WHTCF), Doximity Inc. (NYSE: DOCS), and Uphealth Inc. (NYSE: UPH).
In addition, according to a CVS Health 2022 Health Care Insights Study, “A little over half (53 percent) of providers said that the addition of virtual care options led to an increase in patient visits, according to a new report. Compared to in-person appointments, healthcare consumers find virtual visits more convenient because they don't have to leave home (41 percent), they don't have to cover transportation costs (37 percent), and they save time (37 percent). Three, as also noted by the AMA, “Telehealth is critical to the future of health care, which is why the AMA continues to lead the charge to aggressively expand telehealth policy, research and resources to ensure physician practice sustainability and fair payment.”

During the second quarter we achieved over 20% YoY organic growth driven by strong operating performances across all our lines of business including both online and in-person care channels. WELL also achieved record patient visits in the quarter with over 1.16 million combined omni-channel, diagnostic and asynchronous patient interactions – demonstrating our continued leadership position as the preeminent end-to-end healthcare company in Canada, while our US businesses continue to exhibit industry leading growth metrics. WELL’s US-based virtual patient services businesses, Circle Medical and Wisp, achieved profitable results and continued growth in revenues with a combined annual revenue run-rate exceeding $115 million in the month of June. Our outlook for the second half of the year remains very positive, hence we are able to confidently increase our annual guidance for annual revenue to exceed $550 million in 2022.”
