The International Telecare & Telehealth Conference 2013

With the ever increasing focus on urgent and unscheduled care, particularly during the traditional out of hour period, Primecare has sought to merge the principles of urgent out of hours care with the core delivery models for telecare and telehealth. Mapping the patient pathway has demonstrated marked similarities and therefore opportunities to harness existing systems for new methods of care. The traditional world of GP out of hours care will potentially disappear to be replaced by the 24 / 7, whole systems model. The journey starts here.
