COVID-19 has paved the way for the provision of remote healthcare to become the new normal exposing members to unprecedented clinico-legal risks. If the news reports are anything to go by it might even be implemented as part of regular practice after the virus has been contained.

For these reasons, it is important you are equipped with the requisite knowledge and skills to deliver a telehealth service that is in accordance with regulator and MBS requirements.

In this webinar, we will impart some highly effective tips and easy-to-implement strategies to plan your telehealth consultations. We will highlight how you can devise contingency plans that will help you respond to technical and non-technical issues as they arise and provide you with a checklist to streamline your telehealth consultations. Further clarification will also be offered around MIPS’ provision of indemnity and assistance for these consults.
