Global Veterinary Telemedicine Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic is positively influencing the veterinary telehealth market. The interest in veterinary telehealth is increasing during the ongoing crisis. For instance, as per a 2020 article by the Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), the use of telemedicine has grown to protect and monitor the health of veterinary patients and veterinary teams. Additionally, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) was providing flexibility across FDA-regulated industries and announced that it does not intend to enforce certain requirements that may enable veterinarians to better utilize telemedicine to address animal health needs during the pandemic. Moreover, several healthcare organizations launched telehealth services during the pandemic. For instance, in March 2021, a leading integrated healthcare company in India, Practo, announced the launch of a veterinary telemedicine service. Moreover, in 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended the veterinarians minimized their contact with pet owners using telemedicine in the pandemic. Thus, the factors mentioned above are leading to an increase in the number of veterinary telemedicine services during the ongoing pandemic.
