Telehealth invitation

April 5, 2012

THE Government is inviting applications for funding for the NBNEnabled Telehealth Pilots Program. The program will provide up to $20.6m for innovative telehealth pilots over the next two years. “Telehealth can solve the tyranny of distance by using technology to bring health services that are sometimes only provided hundreds of kilometres away from the patient’s home right into their living room,” said Minister for Health Tanya Plibersek. Speaking about the program the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator Stephen Conroy said “the delivery of high quality health care direct to the home via NBN-enabled telehealth services will make a real difference to the lives of Australians with high health care needs.” “The program also aims to provide coaching and healthy living support in the home to improve overall health outcomes for older Australians or those living with serious illness,” he added. To download an invitation to apply for the funding, and for more info on telehealth see http://health.gov.au/ehealthnbntelehealth.
