As I read this NR by RAND corporation, i got really excited about the MediCall App release:

This has the potential to leverage a lot revenue for DM. Maybe it will also generate millions per year.

Key Findings of the report

• Evidence in the literature shows that, for some health settings, such as in the management of chronic conditions, telemedicine can generate comparable and even improved healthcare outcomes for patients.
• By saving work and leisure time, a permanent increase in tele-consultations can generate as much as CAD 5bn a year for the Canadian economy.
• Teleconsultations can improve the Canadian health system by leading to fewer missed appointments and lowering the use of emergency departments for minor issues, saving CAD 150m a year if used effectively.
• Teleconsultations could help reach Canadians in communities where medical care is harder to access and improve their wellbeing, worth up to CAD 600m a year.
• In Canada, there are significant technical, socio-economic, and regulatory barriers to a permanent increase in the use of telemedicine and tele-consultations.

Recommendations

• Ensure technical interoperability of electronic health records.
• Develop user-friendly solutions through the private and public sectors and provide relevant education and training to healthcare staff.
• Provide healthcare staff with the skills and training necessary to develop telemedicine.
• Continue to address existing health inequities and improve digital health literacy.
• Develop a provincial or local strategy to address jurisdictional barriers in Canada.
• Modify the existing Canadian fee system to ensure doctors are reimbursed for using telemedicine methods.
• Develop national standards for patient health information access in Canada.
