Meetings are video calls held in a clinic meeting room with other health service providers. They are different to a Video Call consultation with your patients which takes place in the Clinic Waiting Area. Multiple callers can easily access a meeting room at one time - you can have a maximum of 6 participants in a video call meeting room. If you're a clinic team member you can access the meeting rooms at any time and you can meet with fellow signed in team members and also invite guests. You may also be invited to a meeting as a guest in a clinic you are not a member of, in which case you'll receive an invitation to attend.
Attending a meeting
You can set up a meeting in one of your clinic meeting rooms at any time with other members of your team and invite guests who are not members of your clinic. You may also receive an invitation to attend a meeting.
