Distribution of telemedicine users in Mexico in 2021, by type of service received
* For this statistic only respondents who had made use of telemedicine were considered.
The question was phrased by the source as follows: "Qué tipos de servicios ocurrieron en la consulta médica vía telefónica, WhatsApp o video llamada?" (What type of services were received in the medical consultation by telephone, WhatsApp, or video call?)
Percentage points exceeding 100 percent are probably due to the use of more than one service.
The translation of the question in English may slightly differ from the original.
