New Service Partnership with Virtual GP Service, Doctor Care Anywhere
HCB Group is delighted to partner with the patient-focused, GP-led company, Doctor Care Anywhere. Doctor Care Anywhere is founded by doctors, for patients. They improve people’s lives by offering patients the ability to book digital GP appointments around the clock – with 24hour access. With the ability to speak to doctors by video or phone, get referrals, fit notes and prescription delivered to their door – Doctor Care Anywhere is paving the way in the digital healthcare sector.
By offering a more accessible way to speak to a GP, small health concerns rarely evolve into significant health issues. For businesses, this reduces employee absenteeism and increases overall productivity – resulting in a healthier, happier workplace.
HCB Group have partnered with Doctor Care Anywhere to provide access to consultations with a GP for individuals not responding effectively to HCB’s Post Covid Syndrome Assessment & Treatment Pathway or for whom a GP consultation is considered necessary following an Initial Case Manager assessment.
Jim Harris, Managing Director of the HCB Group commented; “The global pandemic has accelerated the rate at which Telehealth services are becoming the norm in the provision of Healthcare and aligned services. We have been looking for some time for a Virtual GP Service that shares our values and aims, and we believe we have found this in Doctor Care Anywhere. Their speed of service delivery, reputation and attention to detail dovetail well with HCB Group’s culture, and I look forward to our teams working together to add another important layer of support to our clients, not only those going through our Long Covid Treatment Pathway but offering a wider selection of accessibility to our Employee Health Management clients, and claimants under our care on behalf of Income Protection insurers.”
Dr Bayju Thakar, CEO of Doctor Care Anywhere said; “Digital healthcare is transforming patient lives by making health journeys simpler, faster and more convenient. At Doctor Care Anywhere, we put our patients at the heart of everything we do, delivering high quality care and standards of service. It is very important to us that we partner with organisations who share in that philosophy and we are very pleased to be working with the HCB team to ensure their customers have the ability to access a GP consultation wherever and whenever they need to.”
