Hospital
It is not only the Corona pandemic that has shown that telemedicine is becoming increasingly important in everyday clinical practice. For example, video consultations are not only accepted by doctors and patients, but explicitly desired. The digital and contactless offers, save time and still provide a professional platform that meet the needs of patients.
We define a video call between a patient and his doctor as a "video consultation". The German health care system has several conditions for these calls which we all fulfill. As a result we can call ourselves "provider of certified video consultations". If the call is between a health care worker and a doctor, we define it as a "tele consultation". Unlike in video consultations, a tele consultation doesn't only involve giving out medical advise but also delegation of medical services and point of care measurements with medical gadgets for diagnostics.

|---|---|---|
| Who is involved? | Doctor and patient | Doctor and professional health care workers like nurses (Have eventually an additional apprenticeship) |
| What is it about? | Medical advise or second opinion | Diagnostics, Medical decisions and orders, Responsibility, Delegation of measurements |

| Resulting measurements on site | None | Yes, by involved health care worker |
The Hospital Structure Fund Ordinance (Krankenhauszukunftsgesetz KHZG) came into force at the beginning of 2021. As a result, a total of 4.3 billion euros is available for the modernization of hospitals for networking, investments in digitization and modern technical equipment. The Future Program offers hospitals the opportunity to implement digital updates to existing equipment or to purchase new equipment.
