Telemedicine

Telemedicine

Telemedicine technology allows Priority Care to provide remote Early Intervention Triage Services, Realtime Medical Access, Live Treating Doctor Workplace Reviews and true Return to Work Case Conferencing, all supported through Telstra’s ReadyCare Network to ensure complete National coverage.

Remote Medical Access

Realtime Remote Medical Access provides instant contact with Priority Care Health Professionals to ensure the ultimate care for individuals in rural and regional locations.

While skilled health practitioners are generally able to make a diagnosis over the telephone, for the individual, having direct visual contact with the treating professional can provide the reassurance needed to facilitate a prompt recovery.

Priority Care’s use of video conferencing and ready to access technology including Skype and Facetime brings the doctor into the workplace for an unprecedented level of efficiency.

Preferred Doctor Access

Medical Practitioners, Allied Health Professionals and Occupational Health Providers in our network are accredited and trained in accordance with national standards to ensure we provide a consistent and professional service to our clients.

Priority Care establishes relationships between specific facilities and individual doctors, which allows the doctor to develop an intimate understanding of the workplace. This helps the return to work knowledge of the doctor, and also improves the accessibility between the employees, managers and the doctor.

Intrinsic Network Connectivity

The Realtime Remote Medical Access not only brings the doctor into the workplace, but through the Priority Care integrated software platform, the health providers within the Priority Care Network also have improved communication between each other.

Through improving the communication channels between providers, information can be shared quickly to reduce delays and allow the right treatment to be provided at the right time. This means improved recovery times and costs being contained to only what’s necessary.

Quality Control

The use of the integrated software platform not only allows Priority Care intrinsic connectivity with our provider network, it also allows us to monitor the quality of the service being provided by the network. The quality measures are also available to our clients to ensure transparent service delivery, and to allow our clients to make informed decisions.
