The platform brings about a change in the Outpatient consultation model as it allows Clinicians to reach out to their patients remotely via a video conferencing model to be able to address their healthcare needs. It gives the patient the confidence of being able to have access to their Clinician in their time of need.
The platform has a two-way add on feature that allows the patient to invite a friend or family member on the consultation and at the same time permits the Clinician to invite a colleague in case of a multi-disciplinary or complicated consultation.
It provides the flexibility of choosing the specialty or Specialist and the preferred appointment time. It is modeled in such a way that it costs less than a physical visit, and therefore gives better value for patients as it allows for continuity of care.
It is particularly advantageous to the elderly who face mobility challenges. With this platform, patients will be receiving prompt care from the comfort of their homes.

Ecare’s telemedicine platform will be embedded into Evercare’s website which integrates collaborative communication seamlessly, enabling efficient and more convenient models of service delivery.
“This allows patients to schedule appointments, process payments, manage existing Doctors, and access Ecare services via mobile and desktops with no installation or app download required.
Furthermore, the platform is completely end-to-end encrypted, meaning patient’s information cannot be accessed by any intermediaries, ensuring a private and secure experience for Evercare’s patients.
“Ecare will offer specialty services such as Family Medicine, Neurology, Nephrology, Neonatology, Pediatrics, Urology, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Radiology, Neurosurgery, Pediatric Surgery, and General Surgery, he added.
