  2. For patients who live further afield, ie, especially rural locations, it allows access to the specialist and, therefore, reducing travel time for patients and family. • This means reducing stress (as often they have to catch numerous trains and buses). • This also means it reduces (transport) expense.

  3. Increased access to a specialist means that symptoms, complications and problems can be diagnosed early (nipped in the bud and treated without a delay). • Using state of the art technology which assists improved collaboration between professionals and providers (and therefore provides patients and their families with enhanced confidence that all that can be done is being done).

  4. The technology will be simple to use, reliable, with high quality image and audio; to facilitate a “natural” face to face consultation with a patient where facial signals/body language can be identified. • The technology will give a good long term investment, It will also be flexible, secure and “future proof”.
