New York Gov. Kathy Hochulon Sept. 25 inked an executive order that will use telehealth to alleviate staffing shortages amid the pandemic and COVID-19 vaccination mandates.

Three details:

The order enables physicians from outside New York, from Canada or from any other country approved by the Department of Health to treat New Yorkers through telehealth.

The executive order also allows nurses, licensed practical nurses, licensed nurse practitioners, midwives and social workers who are in good standing from any state to provide services in New York. Medical technicians will be able to use mobile health platforms to provide care for patients in different locations.

The order is set to expire Oct. 27.

Uh, no thanks. It’ll be a cold day in hell when I use my laptop to see a doctor.

Doctors will miss a lot of problems not being able to see a patient in person. This must be what the demonrats want.

Like I said, under NO Circumstances should any Hospital in New York Treat ANY Public Employee, let them DIE IN THE PARKING LOT for what They created.

Heck, if you live in NY you might welcome a laptop doc. Maybe he prescribes Ivermectin freely. lol

I think 50% or more medical care can be done online. At least 50%. If I go to the clinic with an ear infection and I tell the doctor I have an ear infection why did I need to drive out there, waste the staff time, when in reality all I needed was a prescription for something?

Knowing the Democraps who run New York State, they'll make sure that every doctor they allow in the network, will have to promise they won't prescribe it.

"I think 50% or more medical care can be done online."

I see my Endocrinologist every six months, and have fasting lab work done the week before. He doubles as my family doctor. He can't take my blood pressure, temperature, check my oxygen levels, or feel my thyroid through a computer. If my doctor can't see me in person twice a year, then he shouldn't be my doctor.

And then, even though they never set foot in New North Korea, aka New Nork, they will be taxed as New Nork residents.

Has the Governor checked with all the health insurance carriers to make sure those Telehealth visits will be covered, especially if the doctors are outside the network, and/or outside the country?

He can shove telehealth up his abc. No way even if I was at my final end. I refuse video health.

Maybe don’t fire health care workers who worked through the early days of the pandemic and are now hesitant to get the jab.

Because your self-diagnosed “ear infection” may not be a simple ear infection. Really quite simple.
