COVID-19: Virtual clinic for 1-2-1 doctor patient consultancy in highly-secure including 2-way file sharing

Following the COVID-19 pandemic many routine outpatient appointments have been cancelled. Globally hospitals have increased the use of virtual clinics to provide patient care while healthcare systems recover. Current ‘virtual solutions' are derived from primary care models; they do not allow information to either be sent from or received by the patient from one secure area - and form only the most basic of communication formats. A UK company has developed an innovative new virtual clinic that transforms communication between patient and practitioner.: Audio/video calls and file transfers of written, photographic and video materials inform the consultation, build patient knowledge and enhance patient care. Key features include: · Secure environment · Video or audio consultation · Live file sharing between patient and hospital and hospital and patient · Resource information library · Surgical video library · Physiotherapy video library · Comprehensive patient journey They are seeking to adapt and instal their system for hospitals and clinics worldwide that are wanting to reduce the backlog of appointments that are growing due to the pandemic, via commercial agreement with technical assistance.
