Virtual care is putting hospitals on the right track to surpass the ailing and ageing issues. 
Ben Magid is CEO of Virtualcare and has expertise across all aspects of digital health. He is passionate about the power of emerging digital technologies.
Virtualcare is an end-to-end remote care automation platform focused on creating technology to enable patient-centric care where it is most convenient.
In this episode, Pete and Ben explore the many potential issues that will arise within the healthcare sector in another five or so years. They take an in-depth look at why this is a problem to deal with now, Australia’s response to the situation and the changes that must be made, among other things.
This episode surrounds virtual care. So tune in to learn how hospitals can make the shift from the bricks and mortar setting into the virtual space. Also, Ben Magid, a digital health expert, helps us to better understand the severity of the healthcare issues to come and if we are doing enough as an industry to remodel healthcare.
