Telehealth

Digital Health Inclusion Tool

AHPA’s Digital Inclusion Assessment and Planning Tool for Allied Health Providers has been developed to help allied health professionals engage with digital health technologies including My Health Record, secure messaging and telehealth. It is intended to help allied health providers assess their own understanding of these technologies and determine how they would benefit their practice and patients.

Once practitioners have completed a self-assessment, the tool provides links to a range of resources for further reading and support to implement digital health tools.

Telehealth guidance for allied health professionals

AHPA has produced a guide and several associated resources addressing technical, privacy and security, and clinical assessment aspects of telehealth for allied health professionals . These resources are intended to provide an overall introduction to telehealth and are to be used in conjunction with profession-specific guidance developed by individual professions.
