ABSTRACT. This paper analyzes the outcomes of an exploratory review of the current research on wearable Internet of Things healthcare systems, virtual care, and real-time clinical monitoring in assessing and treating patients with COVID-19 symptoms. The data used for this study was obtained and replicated from previous research conducted by Accenture, Amwell, Black Book Market Research, Canada Health Infoway, Deloitte, Doximity, Ericsson ConsumerLab, KPMG, Leger, R2G, Syneos Health, PwC, and Sage Growth Partners. I performed analyses and made estimates regarding telehealth initiatives for potential or confirmed COVID-19 patients. Data collected from 4,600 respondents are tested against the research model. Descriptive statistics of compiled data from the completed surveys were calculated when appropriate.
