Abstract
The use of telehealth is not new, however, its recent ubiquity in the National Health Service (NHS) led to the realization that telehealth can offer people a more tailored elective pathway. Resulting in the UK government declaring that digital technology is fundamental to future patient care with a commitment to deliver “at‐scale virtual consultations.” This ambitious plan requires strategic financial planning.
