The E-Consult Platform enables primary care physicians to securely connect digitally with specialists and receive timely clinical guidance in an asynchronous form. This collaboration helps reduce wait times for specialist input, improves the accuracy and consistency of patient support, and strengthens communication between care providers.

By empowering primary care physicians to resolve many cases without the need for a referral, the E-Consult Platform is designed to meaningfully reduce the need for unnecessary diagnostic imaging and referrals. This represents a critical benefit for the public system, where diagnostic capacity is often a major constraint.
