Abstract
We will briefly review the history of telemedicine. Then we will look at its various applications, including teleconsultation, which is only one part of telemedicine. Belgium had not evolved much in the field of teleconsultation. It was only during the COVID-19 pandemic that this possibility was quickly made available to caregivers, and therefore to patients. We will discuss how the Belgian authorities were able to speed up the possibility of using this branch of telemedicine. We will focus more specifically on the care of diabetic patients, particularly in our institution, the University Hospital of Liège in Belgium. Finally, we will discuss the limits and prospects of telemedicine, particularly in the field of diabetology.
