What Our Partners Say

“

“This is really exciting progress. To be able to both offer 30,000 patients the option to book an appointment when they need one, and reduce the unnecessary appointments that clinicians attend. The patients that need care are seen quicker, while other patients can be reviewed remotely so no one slips through the net. The next phase to integrate with on-site laboratories will take it to another level. This is a site to watch.”

Elliott Engers

CEO, Infinity Health

“

“Our partnership with Infinity Health and DrDoctor is already having a positive impact on patients and clinicians. Patients tell us that they feel in control of their condition and can communicate with their clinical teams more easily. It is also releasing appointments in the hospital, while giving clinicians the tools to remotely monitor patients. We are working hard to ensure even more patients benefit from PIFU and I’m looking forward seeing the impact brought about by integrating blood tests into the process.”

“Having heard that other trusts had been running such a benefit [Salary Sacrifice Programme], we invited Liaison Onecall to explain how the process worked and what savings the Trust may expect from running two or three programmes per year…

We decided to run the benefits programme and see what the take-up would be.”
