Revolutionizing Patient Access to Care
Bask Health sees remarkable changes in healthcare as telehealth clinical services make medical care available to more people. The numbers paint a clear picture - telehealth usage for primary care visits has grown from less than 3% in 2019 to approximately 19% in 2022. This growth has changed the way patients get their healthcare.
Breaking Geographic Barriers
Telehealth breaks down traditional barriers to care. Our platform connects patients with healthcare providers, regardless of their location. This benefits people in rural and underserved areas significantly. The results speak for themselves - about 31% of all Minnesotans used telehealth at least once between mid-2022 and mid-2023. These numbers show how virtual care services reach more people every day.
Expanding Specialist Availability
Our telehealth clinical platform makes specialized medical services available to communities that never had access before. This change is shown most clearly in behavioral health care, where over 50% of mental and behavioral health visits happened through telehealth in 2022. About 75% of behavioral health providers now use telehealth for some of their visits.
Our platform's specialist access offers these benefits:

24/7 Healthcare Access Benefits
Healthcare needs don't follow office hours. Our telehealth clinical services give patients round-the-clock access to care. This expanded availability helps behavioral health services, especially now the most common type of telehealth visit. Patients with complex conditions find telehealth useful both as a replacement for in-person visits and as extra support for managing chronic conditions.
Convenience is not our only virtue. Telehealth especially helps patients who need more healthcare and those managing multiple conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and depression. Flexible scheduling options and no travel requirements make healthcare available to those who need it the most.
