This system was planned together by the Primary Care Clinic Team and UMCH Technology Sdn Bhd.<\/p>\n<p>The system allows the patients to book their walk-in appointment prior to their visit to primary care clinic. The patients can make an appointment using the WeHealth application (available on Android OS) or the website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.umchtech.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.umchtech.com.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The benefit of the system is that the patients\u2019 visits to primary care clinic can be planned and staggered using the appointment time slot, to prevent crowding at the registration and waiting area. In addition, by booking an appointment, patients may avoid unnecessary visits to the hospital and be turned away should the clinic is closed.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, to provide holistic and quality care to the patients equally, emergency and urgent cases that present to the clinic will bypass the system, after being assessed by the primary care triage officers.<\/p>\n<p>This system was approved by the UMMC management board in December 2021. It was piloted for a month from January to February 2022. It is fully implemented starting from 1st March 2022.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><strong><u>Teleconsultation<\/u><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Teleconsultation is a new way of conducting medical consultation remotely during the pandemic to reduce the frequency of clinic visits.
