We hope you have been enjoying exploring our new features across the Coviu platform! In case you missed it, Phone Consultations and Group Telehealth Rooms made their grand entrance to Coviu last month, creating a superior and frictionless virtual care experience 🌟💻📱.
Coviu's unified platform for synchronous, video, phone and group consultations, alongside an extensive Apps Marketplace and Remote Patient Monitoring capabilities is able to deliver on a vision of a 'connected care – system of action' that enables providers to provide rapid patient care impact.
To receive a personal walkthrough, book a demo with our friendly team to learn more about how you can utilise Coviu for your practice.
This month we also held our yearly virtual company 'offsite'. It was great connecting with our colleagues who span across the globe to celebrate how far we have come as a company, learn more about each other and plan for the rest of the year. There are still so many exciting things to come and we're excited to see the evolutionary path that digital health has and continues to take.

Reimbursement Factsheets
As you may know, we gather many of the video telehealth reimbursements that are available for patients across different medical and allied health services to reflect information made available by Medicare.
Now that Coviu provides phone telehealth services, in addition to video consultations for seamless clinic management, we have updated these factsheets to include both video and phone MBS Items for your profession!
Download them for free today!
We endeavour to interpret the MBS fact sheets provided by Medicare to the best of our ability. If you notice an error that needs adjusting please contact us here.

Product Updates
Recording Incoming Phone Calls
For Enterprise clinics that have a phone number provisioned, incoming call recording can now be configured. The configuration menu will now allow you to enable recording as well as set a message to advise callers that a recording will occur. All recordings are captured in Data Collections. To enable this feature please reach out to your account manager.
-------
Waiting Area Hours
Any new clinics that are created will have their Waiting Area Hours preset to 24*7 by default. This will allow clinics to avoid immediate configuration of hours. Configuration of custom hours can still be set as per normal, but the default will be 24*7. Previously this was set 9am - 5pm, Monday to Friday.
-------
Waiting Area Invitation Update
Waiting Area Invitations now provide an information retention option to accommodate different workflows. You are now able to choose if you’d like the message and recipient content to remain or be cleared after sending.
