By enabling clinicians to address care gaps more effectively, these updates support improved health outcomes for individuals covered by employer-sponsored and health plan services.Benefits of the Recent Move to Teladoc HealthThe lucrativeness of the Prism platform is expected to get a boost as a result of the recent capability additions.
