I agree with Emily that ‘digital’ health is better terminology. Clients often have fitbits (and other activity monitors) and are often happy to use these to monitor sleep/ activity/ heart rate and sometimes even blood pressure (great for monitoring recovery from concussion). A text from a client with an update on their sleep the night before (which might be a high risk predictor of psychological decompensation) would definitely count as digital health

Kia ora @Ruth_Large , what’s the process of taking up your suggestion/offer and getting some of the discussion on this topic thread into NZ Telehealth website: https://www.telehealth.org.nz/health-provider/what-is-telehealth/?
It might be worth adding dates at the bottom of each page on NZ Telehealth to know when it’s last been updated . . . it appears to have not been updated since prior to these discussions?? But, I could easily have missed a change 
I thing the definitions are being refreshed, so there should be new ones listed as part of the competency framework being published soon.
