To assist our patients in making healthcare more accessible, especially during recent COVID times, Atticus Health patients can now request a telehealth video call with their GP using the new Healthdirect Video Call platform at no additional cost to a regular telephone consult.
Healthdirect Video Call is a government-funded virtual health service that connects people to healthcare by overcoming the barriers of distance, time and cost. This service is at the forefront of telehealth technology.
This means that as an Atticus Health patient, you can now access care closer to home, saving travel time, money and risk of infection. It’s also reassuring to know that this service is built with advanced data protection, maintaining your privacy and confidentiality whilst leaving no digital footprints from any participants.
Our clinicians also benefit significantly from this as a preferred method of communication to telephone consultations, as it allows them to better interact and engage with their patients remotely.
The new Healthdirect Video Call platform is available at Atticus Health Highett, Jindivick, Hastings, Bittern, Hamilton Island and Somerville.
