A substantial proportion of emergency department (ED) visits—over 25%—can be effectively managed through virtual consultations with experienced physicians. This shift in care delivery would significantly alleviate the burden on ED staff, enabling them to focus on critically ill patients. Moreover, it would reduce patient inconvenience and healthcare costs associated with unnecessary travel. By empowering healthcare professionals to work remotely, virtual consultations offer increased flexibility and work-life balance, which is particularly crucial in addressing the physician shortage and burnout exacerbated by the pandemic.
