There is no specific legal framework in Switzerland for the practice of telemedicine. The doctor carrying out a teleconsultation must therefore respect the general principles of medical practice : provide care online with professional recommendations, provide his patient with clear, appropriate and complete information, and also respect medical confidentiality. The doctor, due in particular to the limitation of the senses and the absence of direct physical examination, must maintain a degree of caution in the practice of remote consultations. He also remains responsible for the medical data exchanged and it is up to him to use a telemedicine solution adapted to the data security and confidentiality standards.
