Not Applicable

6. What is your discharge percentage from the “virtual” appointment?

7. What software program do you use to run your virtual clinic? In-house or bought in?
Not Applicable

8. If you don’t have any virtual clinic, have you been considering/planning for one?
We are currently in the process of looking to introduce it into our fracture clinic pathway for patients referred from A&E.

9. Do all patients come to a generic fracture clinic? Or do A&E book into sub-speciality clinics e.g acute knee, Paeds, hands etc.
There is a generic fracture clinic that all A&E referrals are booked into and there are also specific acute slots on consult schedules that A&E can be booked into.
