Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to review the current knowledge on the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the telemedicine development. This work mainly focuses on telemedicine, history of its development, its impact on medicine, and the potential impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the telemedicine development. Telemedicine can be considered an innovative solution and has many development opportunities and to take full advantage of it, the opinions of doctors, paramedics, and patients should be taken into account, remembering to adapt this technology also to the elderly or computer illiterate people in order to make it easier or even possible for them to use. There should also be more research conducted in this area for further investigation of the telemedicine impact on the quality of the offered medical services.
