New research from Frost & Sullivan's practice (http://www.healthcareIT.frost.com), , finds that with the growing number of actual healthcare services provided through videoconferencing technology, the opportunities for healthcare has evolved into its own distinct market space rather than just another vertical for videoconferencing providers. This has created a unique set of challenges for both healthcare and videoconferencing participants around areas such as payment, infrastructure and licensing, as well as regulatory and privacy issues.

"While there are payment options concerning reimbursement for video telemedicine encounters, it still remains not very well understood by many," said Frost & Sullivan Senior Industry Analyst Zachary Bujnoch . "Compounded with the complexities that vary from state to state in the U.S., billing still remains the most significant hurdle for new video telemedicine users."

This intimate use of videoconferencing in healthcare delivery has created a distinct set of needs and revenue opportunities that, in turn, require a significant level of expertise. Through cross industry collaboration, participants are learning how to provide the most value for their customers, while overcoming many of the complex new hurdles that come with involvement in a new industry vertical. 

"By strategic partnerships and industry collaboration, companies can play to their core strengths," said Bujnoch. "This allows video offerings to reach new levels of reliability and functionality in the healthcare environment."
