Webcam & Microphone
Generally, the selection of webcams you will find from your local technology store will be more than adequate for Telehealth applications. If in doubt, make sure to ask your local retail representatives about webcams.
Computer Security
Health Direct Video Call does not require any additional programs to be installed on your computer – it runs purely on the browser. To prevent potential viruses or breaches, avoid installing unknown programs.
In addition, the RACGP has a fantastic resource for protecting your practice.
