How digital health can benefit your practice

Digital health technologies can help allied health, general practices, pharmacies and specialists to improve the delivery and management of care for patients. Digital tools can provide access to safer, connected and quality healthcare to patients, no matter where they live.

Digital health technologies contribute to improving healthcare quality and outcomes by facilitating:

  • Increased access
  • Better care coordination
  • Streamlined information management
  • Easier communication and decision-making
  • Reduced inefficiencies and costs
  • Greater continuity of care, including during an emergency (see our emergency and natural disaster digital toolkit).
