The Telehealth Steering Committee was established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to assist in responding to this crisis, telehealth solutions are currently being deployed across the HSE in the areas of video consultations, online therapies, and remote monitoring. The HSE now has an opportunity to build on this programme of work by establishing scalable and sustainable telehealth solutions that can integrate with existing services while ensuring continuing care and maximising the value of healthcare resources including service capacity.
The Telehealth Steering Committee currently reports to Integrated National Operations Hub (INOH). To ensure successful change and full adoption of digital healthcare solutions, a longer-term structure has been approved and is currently being established. This new structure will drive the implementation of Telehealth solutions across the health service.
The National Steering Committee will agree and set the National Telehealth priorities for local implementation. The structure approved includes one General Manager position, who will have national responsibility to drive change, and nine Grade VII and nine Grade V positions that will support the local implementation of telehealth solutions across Acute and Community services across the health service.
The National Digital Health/Telehealth Steering Committee has adopted a programmatic and project approach regarding the implementation of Digital Health/Telehealth initiatives across the Health Services.
