What Counts as a Telemedicine Mistake?
Even in a virtual setting, doctors and healthcare providers are expected to meet professional standards. Mistakes can include misdiagnosis because symptoms are missed over video, failing to order the right tests, prescribing the wrong medication, or not following up on concerning results. These errors may feel less obvious during an online visit, but the impact on your health can be just as serious as with in-person care.
Can These Mistakes Be Malpractice?
Medical malpractice happens when a provider fails to meet the accepted standard of care and that failure causes harm. That standard does not change just because the visit happens online.
For example, a doctor who overlooks signs of a stroke during a video call, or who fails to refer you to emergency care after reviewing your symptoms, may be held accountable under malpractice law.
Not every mistake automatically qualifies as malpractice, but when harm results from negligence, you may have a valid claim.
