Virtual care in the media
Third-party coverage of Visionflex virtual care in action.
What this is: a curated collection of independent media coverage of Visionflex virtual care.
Who it's for: executives, decision-makers, and anyone building the case internally.
Sometimes the most persuasive proof comes from someone other than the supplier. Independent coverage shows virtual care working in real Australian settings, reported by people with no stake in selling it. This page collects that coverage. Use it alongside the case studies in this section when you're making the case to your board, your team, or a prospective partner.
Featured coverage
Northern Queensland rolls out Visionflex carts with live speech-to-text Pulse+IT, June 2024
Pulse+IT reported on the Northern Queensland Primary Health Network equipping residential aged care homes across the region with Visionflex virtual care systems. A standout feature for this older population is the built-in live speech-to-text transcription and closed captioning, which makes consultations accessible to residents with hearing impairment. The rollout covered dozens of aged care facilities, enabling residents to consult remotely with GPs and specialists, and supporting faster medical attention for people who previously had to wait for visiting doctors or travel long distances.

Why third-party coverage matters
Independent reporting does something your own materials can't: it validates. When a respected digital health publication covers a deployment, or a health network publicly backs virtual care, it signals to cautious stakeholders that this is established practice, not an experiment. For an executive weighing a decision, or a clinical lead bringing a sceptical team along, that external validation carries weight.
How to use this collection
- In board and executive conversations: pair a media piece with the relevant case study for both the independent voice and the detailed outcomes.
- With prospective partners (GPs, specialists, PHNs): share coverage from your region or care setting to build confidence.
- Internally: include a media highlight in staff newsletters to build pride and momentum.
- On your website or in proposals: link to coverage as third-party proof points.
Add your own
This collection grows with your home's story. As your virtual care program develops, you may generate your own coverage, a local newspaper piece, a PHN feature, an award. When you do, add it here. Your own story, told by an independent voice, is often the most compelling proof of all.
