Interview with Dr. Sophie Martin, Health Policy Expert
Interviewer: Thank you for joining us, Dr. Martin. Can you clarify the recent changes regarding the approval process for teleconsultation companies under the law of December 23, 2022?
Dr. Martin: Certainly! The law mandates that teleconsultation companies must receive approval from the Minister of Health and Access to Care before they can bill for teleconsultation services provided by their doctors. This is aimed at ensuring that telemedicine practices adhere to established safety and quality standards.
Interviewer: What criteria must these companies meet to obtain this approval?
Dr. Martin: To be approved, teleconsultation services must comply with a set of comprehensive standards that include patient safety, adherence to medical conventions, and the overall quality of care. Additionally, they need certification from the Digital Health Agency that their information systems meet specific interoperability, security, and ethical guidelines.
Interviewer: How does this impact patient care in the realm of teleconsultations?
Dr. Martin: This framework ensures that patients receive consistent and safe care regardless of where they seek teleconsultation services. It enables the sharing of teleconsultation reports through secure platforms like Mon Espace Santé and Dossier Médical Personnel (DMP), promoting a more integrated patient care pathway.
Interviewer: Can you tell us about the companies that have already been approved?
Dr. Martin: As of now, MEDADOM, MEDAVIZ, QARE, and TESSAN MED have all received approval. These companies are leading the way in complying with the new regulations and are setting an example for others in the industry.
Interviewer: Speaking of compliance, can you explain the importance of the interoperability, security, and ethics framework published in the Official Journal?
Dr. Martin: This framework is crucial. It not only guarantees that teleconsultations are secure and ethical but also ensures that all systems are interoperable. This means that healthcare providers can share relevant patient information efficiently and securely, which enhances the overall quality of care.
Interviewer: Thank you, Dr. Martin, for sharing these insights on the evolving landscape of teleconsultation in our healthcare system.
Dr. Martin: My pleasure! It’s a significant step forward in making healthcare more accessible and safe for everyone.
E sharing of patient information securely, integrating teleconsultation seamlessly into their overall care pathway. This not only promotes better health outcomes but also builds trust between patients and healthcare providers.
Interviewer: With the deadline for compliance set for December 31, 2025, how prepared are the teleconsultation companies at this stage?
Dr. Martin: As of now, only four teleconsultation companies—MEDADOM, MEDAVIZ, QARE, and TESSAN MED—have been approved under these standards. While this indicates initial progress, many companies still have work to do in order to achieve full compliance. The extended deadline should provide them with the necessary time to align their systems with the required standards.
Interviewer: What developments are you anticipating in the teleconsultation field as a result of these new regulations?
Dr. Martin: I expect to see a significant increase in the quality and safety of telemedicine services. As companies strive for compliance, we will likely witness enhancements in technology and the overall patient experience. Furthermore, these regulations may encourage more providers to enter the telehealth market, ultimately expanding access to care for patients across different regions.
Interviewer: Thank you, Dr. Martin, for sharing your insights on this important topic!
Dr. Martin: Thank you for having me! It’s an exciting time for digital health.
