With eHealth, Healthcare professionals (doctors, nurses, and other professionals) will have ready access to…
Their patient’s data at any time, in any place, when there is a need to know.
The best available evidence based knowledge, from trusted sources worldwide.
Necessary services to support their work, both clinically and administratively, including automated referrals.
Other colleagues, via email, tele-consultations, at any location in the country.
Advanced diagnostic tools and decision support services.
Systems with built-in intelligence which help prevent medical errors and adverse events.
Continuous Medical Education (CME), much of it available online.
Information that allows them to compare their own practice results and trends against national performance statistics.
The latest medical technology, equivalent to what would be found in the private sector, or in other developed countries.
With eHealth Healthcare professionals will not have to…- Wait to receive the results of diagnostic tests, or the results of other patient consults or services; the results will be delivered electronically as soon as available.
- Waste time gathering patient data that has already been captured elsewhere.
- Waste time dealing with patients who do not show up for appointments, or have already been diagnosed and served, and are simply shopping around.
- Perform redundant tests and procedures on patients, since information about services they have previously received will be available online.
