Live Video
ServeFed can provide, or set up live video interaction, allows individuals to communicate with healthcare providers using audiovisual technology, serving as an alternative to in-person appointments when necessary. It supports various services like consultation, diagnosis, and treatment, utilizing devices such as video conferencing units, cameras, and display devices like monitors and tablets.
