Internet Households With Children are More Likely to Utilize Telehealth Services

New Parks Associates telehealth research shows having children at home is a key factor for interest in and usage of telehealth services—74% of US internet households with children at home have used telehealth services in the past 12 months versus 32% without kids at home. Seventy percent of households with children at home are likely to use telehealth services the next time they are sick.

Parks Associates’ recent study “Telehealth & Remote Patient Monitoring: User Experience” provides trending data on consumer familiarity, use, and demand for telehealth services and connected health devices. It evaluates user experience with telehealth services and investigates consumer appetite for virtual care as a standard offering, outside of crisis conditions.
