Coviu's Telehealth Blog

Coviu in partnership with The Department of Health delivered a webinar on 'Best Practices for Medicare Telehealth Reimbursements'.

Get excited...some big enhancements are coming to Coviu. We are thrilled to be introducing a Coviu Welcome Dashboard and a revamp of the Call Interface!

We know our name Coviu has some unfortunate spelling...just one letter off 'Covid', you can just imagine how many questions we get! What does your name mean? How did you come up with it? Why would you call it something so similar to Covid? Very few know the origin of the name Coviu, but today we dig in!

It's been another busy month at Coviu, from topical webinars, exciting new product updates and amazing customer success stories...there is a lot to dive into.

Together, Coviu and Synapse Medical delivered a live, free webinar on Telehealth Reimbursements!

We hope you had a safe and restful holiday break and are ready for a fresh start in 2022!

It's hard to believe we are already nearing the end of 2021, and what a year it has been. With new COVID-19 strains affecting the world, international lockdowns, an increase in telehealth adoption as a subset of patient demand and increased access and finally government recognition of this with permanent telehealth Medicare items announced!

Dr Silvia Pfeiffer, speaks to Aged Care News about the importance of permanent telehealth items and what this means for Australian healthcare. Pfeiffer tells Aged Care News that this funding signals the shift from telehealth being considered an emergency measure, to it being recognised as a genuine tool to enhance consistency and quality of care going forward.

How ready is your practice to make video calls now with telehealth a permanent option for your patient consultations? Kris Borgraeve from Digital Practice spoke with Coviu CEO and Co-Founder Dr Silvia Pfeiffer about telehealth becoming a permanent reality.

Today is a good day for our healthcare system as the Federal Government announced that Medicare-subsidised telehealth services have been made a permanent part of Australia’s healthcare system.
