• What does the article (or section) do well?

Very strong introduction to Telehealth and the meaning of this sector. 

I like the stats you introduced in the "growth of the industry section", they make it interesting and eye catching for the reader The "high penetration in specialties/telepsychiatry" is SUPER interesting! So glad you added this. • What changes would you suggest overall?

"Growth in Usage Rate" I would add reasons aside or for what related to covid were they using it? Maybe mention to talk about the symptoms and understand whether or not they had the virus etc..

This sentence: Most states require that the healthcare professional, that is using telehealth, have a form of license to practice in that state regardless of whether they are located in the state. Was a bit confusing to understand. It is true that the paragraph after does go further into detail and is overall easier to understand.

• What is the most important thing that the author could do to improve his/her contribution?

I think you laid this out pretty well and have no complain. I saw a note to add more at the end of the last sections so I would just encourage you to do so, but I really enjoyed reading this.

• Did you glean anything from your classmate's work that could be applicable to your own? If so, let him/her know!

I liked the refences, articles (University of Michigan), tone, statistics. The ways these blend in so well into the sections and the writing in general make this wikipage engaging and super easy to read. The way you divided the section is also great as it is sort of in a chronological way and you talk more about the future of this industry at the end.

What changes would you suggest overall? Some sections read like a research paper. For example, the first paragraph in "Growth in the industry". I suggest taking out the mentions of Aaron Mauck and focusing on the facts about BCBS' growth and NYU Langone's growth. As the reader, if I needed to know about who did the research, I would go to the source you cited. As Mauck is a researcher, he is not directly relevant to the topic of telehealth's growth.



What is the most important thing that the author could do to improve his/her contribution? I suggest including specific telehealth advancements in the fields you mentioned: cardiology, neurology, mental health, and dermatology. Or explore how telehealth has significantly expanded the services for a field of medicine that previously didn't have them prior to COVID.


Did you glean anything from your classmate's work that could be applicable to your own? If so, let him/her know! Your use of block quotes in the "Early Stages of the Pandemic" section is a nice addition. Great job!
