Some questions we didn’t have time for
Virtual care
Canada has a 2018 national standard for virtual care; doing very good work there. Are panellists hearing talk about ‘virtual care’ as the next iteration of telehealth?
Symptom checker
Could you see usage of symptom checkers being incorporated into the telehealth ecosystem as a potential triage tool to support remote patients determine the right pathway to care?
For Meg: Homeless medicine
Do you have any sense of how comprehensive is your reach in Tas homeless population? Think you said the contact data you use came from housing connect - I guess that’s people who’ve applied for housing help. Are there other ‘homeless’ who’d not be in that category.
Our Reality
What is the balance you are aiming for between work encouraging health care providers to embrace technology and work ensuring these technology is fit for purpose. I would argue the greatest barrier to adoption of technology is the limitations of the technology. It is easy to persuade people to use Xero because it is not only fit for purpose it streamlines work. Virtually none of our health technology is like that yet. Is there any chance of more help with sorting our technological
tools.
Remote provision of consultation
Have you come across clinicians providing e-consultations from a remote location (other than the practice). Either from their home or health professionals contracted from other parts of the country to support the practice in provision of consults?
