VisioCare Linkyvet, a new telemedicine app, launches in the UK on 6th April. It is already in use by over 1000 vets in France, Canada and Switzerland.
As the ability to provide care for pets becomes ever more difficult in the light of social distancing, the app will be of real benefit to veterinary professionals, helping them to provide high quality medicine without putting human health at risk. The app is designed to be used by veterinary practices and allows them to maintain a business revenue stream. VisioCare Linkyvet can be used alone or as part of a bundle of VisioCare client communication tools.
VisioCare Linkyvet provides a number of advanced features and includes a payment module – which will be integrated free of charge for orders taken during April – so practices can charge for services provided remotely. It delivers a secure channel for communication and allows the clinician to take photos, video and produce a case file that can be added to the clinical record. Other high-level features include the ability to access the client’s smartphone and zoom into areas that need to be examined or turn on a flashlight to improve visibility. Potential issues such as limitations in clarity due to poor smartphone reception are also solved by the platform.
The tool offers a great deal of flexibility allowing practices to define the hours when the service is available to pet owners. In the current challenging situation, patients can be triaged remotely so a decision can be made about whether the pet needs to be seen.
