Coming Soon to healthdirect Video Call
Find out what is coming soon to Video Call - including added functionality and design updates
Bulk Import of team members
Organisation administrators will soon have the ability to perform a bulk upload of members in their clinics, directly in the Video Call platform. There is a new menu at the Organisation level which allows a csv file with clinic and team member information to be created and uploaded, using a provided template. This will streamline the process of adding multiple users to clinics at once.
Once the csv file is uploaded the details can be reviewed before clicking the Bulk Upload Button to confirm and perform the upload. | ![]() |
Decibel sound meter application
In collaboration with SA Health, we will soon be introducing a Video Call decibel sound meter application that can be used for speech therapy and other clinical use cases. This application can be used to provide clinical information about a person's vocal volume and can be used as an assessment or feedback tool. Some example screenshots are shown below:
Once the application is launched, you can select to either Speak or Listen. The patient will only have the Speak option. | ![]() |
Once Speak or Listen is selected, the option to select the preferred microphone on the speaker's device appears. Either the patient or clinician end can select the required option. |

The application then starts to measure the volume of the speaker's voice and shows the data live in a dial and waveform graph. | ![]() |

Landing page for guests who arrive at the sign-in page in error
We will soon release a new landing page for patients, clients and other guests using the clinic link for a Video Call appointment, when the link is incorrect or another link error occurs. Instead of being taken to the sign-in page in error when this occurs, there will be a new page with more information about what to do next. The example below shows the design of the page:
