Compatible medical devices
Information regarding interoperable medical devices and equipment
Compatible medical devices such as general examination cameras, scopes, telemedicine stations, medical carts and vision glasses, are available though third party companies, independent from Healthdirect. These medical devices can be connected to your computer via USB or Bluetooth and used to enhance your Video Call diagnostic capabilities. Please note that Healthdirect does not provide these devices, your organisation will need to organise the appropriate TGA approve devices independently if you wish to use them in your Video Call consultations.

This page has links to integrated devices, as well as information and quick reference guides regarding the process of connecting them into a call so the remote clinician can view the results in real time.
Enriching the telehealth consultation experience
A health service provider with a patient in a clinical location, for example a GP practice, Aged Care Home or Urgent Care Centre (UCC), can share a medical device (scope, probe, stethoscope or video glasses) into a Video Call with a remote specialist, for examination and diagnosis.
