Interestingly I was reading this article today:

Key part is the last paragraph:Though doubts remain over the application of AI in everyday health care, experts can agree on one thing: the telemedicine phenomenon is likely here to stay.
“This was never a technology problem, it was always a cultural problem and it was a cultural problem that made excuses about the technology,” Parsa said.
“That all evaporated when we changed our culture of diddling to a culture of doing. And I hope this culture of doing now stays.”
Research firm ForresterestimatesU.S. virtual care visits will top 1 billion this year due to the pandemic and other factors such as ongoing care management and mental health needs.
“The Covid-19 pandemic will forever change the face of healthcare, as a paradigm shift has occurred,” Forrester analysts Jeff Becker and Arielle Trzcinski wrote in a note earlier this month.
“The traditional barriers to adoption, such as awareness, cost, and regulation, are no longer valid in today’s reality, and demand for telehealth ... will soar well beyond the period of crisis.”
