video visit
Screen-based consultation
A video visit is a medical appointment conducted remotely through video conferencing rather than in person.
The patient and healthcare provider see and speak to each other on screen: My doctor offered a video visit instead of having me come into the clinic.
The term gained wide currency during the COVID-19 pandemic when in-person appointments became restricted.
