Telehealth service expansion in Brazil

Overview

Telehealth services in Brazil are marking significant milestones in their long-term operations. In the private sector, the healthtech company TopMed is celebrating 20 years of service. Founded in Santa Catarina, the company has expanded to serve over 6 million lives through proprietary technology and clinical algorithms, having launched Brazil’s first 24-hour receptive telehealth service in 2012.

In the public sector, the Parintins Telehealth Center in the Amazon region has also reached its 20th anniversary. Established in 2006 to overcome geographical barriers and river travel challenges, the center now manages 22 telehealth points across riverside and urban units. To support its continued expansion, the Ministry of Health has authorized R$ 1.04 million for structuring and provided multimedia telehealth kits to enhance connectivity in remote areas.
