Telehealth Capability Interest Group

Background

There are various levels of maturity of Telehealth across NSW. The Telehealth Capability Interest Group (TCIG) has been developed to help support clinicians to develop a successful and sustainable Telehealth service across NSW.

Purpose

The TCIG is a virtual forum which allows clinicians in NSW to share their Telehealth initiatives. The forum provides a platform for people to learn, share knowledge and network with others in this space. The key functions of the TCIG forum are:

To facilitate collaboration and networking for clinicians and managers currently working in or wanting to undertake Telehealth services.
To support Telehealth integration across all areas of the patient journey (e.g. aged care, hospital, primary care settings).

Meetings

The TCIG will meet each week to support the rapid expansion of telehealth services in response to the COVID 19 pandemic.
