Area of Science:

Medical Imaging
Telemedicine
Healthcare Management

Background:

A videoconferencing link has connected Karlskrona hospital and Lund university hospital for four years.
The link's use expanded from transmitting angiographic films to routine elective and emergency examinations.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of using videoconferencing for medical consultations.
To quantify the savings in travel time and expenses for physicians utilizing the video link.

Main Methods:

Analysis of 1121 cases examined via videoconference between 1994 and 1995.
Calculation of travel time savings based on an average of three doctors per conference.
Comparison of costs including ISDN connection fees versus savings in salary and travel expenses.

Main Results:

Over 1121 cases, most non-normal findings were discussed with surgeons via videoconference.
Each videoconference resulted in an estimated net gain of approximately 6500 SKr.
Significant savings in travel time (3 x 8 hours per conference) and associated costs were achieved.

Conclusions:

Videoconferencing is a cost-effective and efficient tool for routine medical consultations, including emergency cases.
The technology offers substantial financial benefits by reducing travel and associated expenses for medical staff.
Implementation of videoconferencing enhances the accessibility and timeliness of specialist consultations.
