Since COVID-19, telemedicine is definitely here to stay, and you're being asked to embrace it, because all entities are scrambling to incorporate it into their fiscal planning. You can state that no one method solves all problems, so while you don't embrace it blindly, you do plan to use it thoughtfully within parameters of good medical care.

"The difference between good telemedicine and inappropriate telemedicine is a function of assessing a patient's signs and symptoms. A patient's physical presence and an exam are needed to document signs that are pertinent to the chief complaint. On the other hand, symptoms that are not part of the diagnostic process but are expected in management lend themselves better for telemedicine. If a patient is an established patient, I might very well be able to discuss and manage symptoms or medications via telemedicine. Any initial visit by a new patient, however, would require me to see him or her before reverting to telemedicine visits."
