5 Minutes with a Telehealth team: The physician and the administrator (May 2015)

The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) in Melbourne is the major specialist paediatric hospital in Victoria with around 4,000 staff supporting 250,000 Specialist Clinic appointments. In 2011, the RCH began offering Telehealth video consultations where these might be a better option for patients and their families than travelling to the RCH.

The RACP News interviewed RACP Fellow and Director of Neurology, Associate Professor Andrew Kornberg, and the RCH’s Telehealth Program Manager, Ms Susan Jury, to explore two different perspectives on one clinical Telehealth team.
