dc.description.abstractTechnology is disrupting bringing up a better innovation and strengthening the healthcareservices. Telehealth is one of these services. Telehealth can help in times of emergencysituations as well as reducing morbidity caused by other diseases other than coronavirus andalso constraining its spread as well as sustaining the country's economic development.Although, telehealth is a disruptive innovation, this article aimed to point out why Africa andrest of the world need telehealth to structure out the management of the three phases of healthcrises (pre, during and post-crises) that must be address to help in economic sustainability,increase accessibility to healthcare and increase in quality of life which in turn reduces costsand easy access to healthcare services either incommunicable, non-communicable, ordisastrous situations in the African region. In fighting an outbreak such as this, our study findsthat the government of African nations should guarantee all health experts get fittinginstruction and preparing; present telehealth accreditation for wellbeing experts; givesubsidizing which satisfactorily takes care of the expense of giving telehealth; overhaul clinicalmodels of care; bolster all partners with a viable correspondence; and finally, change the boardtechnique while setting up frameworks to oversee telehealth benefits on a standard premise.en_US
