Telehealth care during the prenatal and postpartum periods improves access to timely care by reducing barriers such as transportation, childcare, distance, and scheduling challenges, making it easier for families to stay connected with their health care providers. It also supports continuity of care, patient satisfaction, and monitoring of maternal and infant health while offering a convenient, flexible option for delivering high-quality perinatal services.
