Before you start holding healthdirect Video Call consultations, you (or your clinic administrator) can configure your virtual clinic to suit your health service's needs. See below for the steps to get started and the simple essential configuration options:

Step 1: Pre-call test

The Video Call pre-call test is a quick and easy way to check check audio, video, browser and internet capability on the device(s) you will use for video telehealth.

Step 2: Clinic admin configures the clinic

When invited to join a clinic as the clinic administrator, you will receive an email to create your account. Once created, you can configure the clinic to suit your needs.

Step 3: Getting your patients started with Video Call

Once your clinic is set up and configured, you can start offering Video Call consultations to your patients or clients.

Step 4: Conduct a healthdirect Video Call consultation
