Virtual care flies high at Digital Health Institute Summit 2022

Government Patient Engagement Technology Virtual/Remote Care

Finally! A conference where delegates got to interact in real life. But it was virtual care that everyone was talking about.

The Digital Health Institute Summit 2022 was held in Melbourne this February and attracted over 700 delegates. Dr Amandeep Hansra was one of those delegates and she shares on this Wild Health podcast what was hot at the summit.

Dr Hansra has a keen insight on the future of virtual care. She one of the clinical reference leads for the Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA), is one of Telstra’s Brilliant Women in Digital Health 2021 and she has nearly two decades of clinical experience. 

[Correction: In the podcast I refer to Dr Hansra as the clinical lead at ADHA. However, Dr Hansra is one of many clinical leads at ADHA. It’s a role she’s jointly held for the last four years.]

On the side Dr Hansra leads Creative Careers in Medicine. The organisation started as a Facebook group and has expanded to 14,000 members who explore medical career paths beyond the traditional physician, surgeon and GP options.
