The Blue House said that it was urgent to establish a non-face-to-face medical treatment system in preparation for the second pandemic in Corona 19.

An official from the Blue House said, “First, what is allowed now is not telemedicine, but non-face-to-face medical treatment. "We have been allowed to telemedicine since February."

As a result, there were about 260,000 non-face-to-face medical treatments conducted over the past three months in the form of telephone care, and patients including hypertension and diabetes, mainly in Daegu and Gyeongbuk, were treated.

In addition, telephone treatment has been conducted not only in large hospitals but also in local clinics, saying, "It is for the safety of doctors and patients' rights, and we believe that it is public in itself."
