A simple operational protocol incorporating the Royal
Australasian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) & the Australian
College of Rural and Remote Medicne (ACRRM) recommended standards will be sent
to a participating practitioner concerned.
Patients
consulting without a Professional Supporter are expected to respect the
standards recommended by these Colleges for their own wellbeing and privacy. A lay-person protocol will be sent ahead.
In order to get
the most out of a Telehealth Consult,
pre consult
platform training and/or familarisation by both supporting practitioners or
patients are strongly recommended
