'Virtual doctor' revolution to cut down on GP visits
Daily Mail, 14/08/2012, p.50, Jonathan Gornall
In March, addressing a telehealth conference, Paul Burstow shocked many present by showing contempt for the vital peer-review process. Then he produced another dubious statistic. Telehealth, he claimed, 'could save the NHS GBP1.2billion over five years'. That, as Richard Vautrey, a Leeds GP and spokesman for the British Medical Association told me, 'just leaves people very suspicious'. Indeed, anyone who attended the same conference as Burstow would have heard a less optimistic take from one of the researchers at the London School of Economics who had worked on the yet-to-be published paper, who said telehealth was unlikely to prove costeffective when measured against the 'cost-effectiveness threshold' set by NICE.
