Online appointment booking system vendor HealthEngine has launched what it is calling an end-to-end telehealth service, providing a full suite of options including a integrated video conferencing system, partnerships with third-party telehealth providers for a 24/7 service, as well as the ability for practices to use consumer-grade video conferencing platforms and telephone appointments.

It has also added a telehealth search feature to its directory that allows patients to find, book, see and pay for telehealth appointments with either their regular provider or a new one. This includes MBS funded telehealth services as well as paid consultations, with patients able to pre-pay at the time of booking.
