In this sense, the study addresses the legal mechanisms and guidelines given by the Federal Council of Medicine (CFM) for the adoption of the practice. As a result, several questions arise regarding the work situation of health professionals who use telemedicine as a work mechanism. The article, therefore, will explain the importance of adopting telemedicine, as well as the problems that arise through it.
