Recently, I was informed by foreign media that I am participating in DigitalHealth. LIVI, an online GP consultancy provider for the London Accelerator Program, today announced the availability of its online GP consultation service to patients across the UK via NHS (National Health Service System) for patient reservations in a safe, fast and easy way Online consultation.
LIVI was established in Sweden in 2015 and is operated by the Swedish company Webbh?lsaAB. The consultants working through the LIVI system are all GMC general practitioners registered in the UK. They have many years of experience in quality care. Once hired, they will undergo a rigorous entry procedure and use proprietary medical guidelines developed internally by LIVI. Before the patient consultation is formally accepted, each GP is required to attend a one-on-one meeting with the LIVI Account Manager to conduct a consulting test in a private, controlled environment.

As the largest digital primary care provider in Europe, LIVI has provided more than 500,000 GP consultations to patients. After signing up with LIVI, patients can use their app to make appointments on their smartphones or tablets anytime, anywhere, and communicate with experienced general practitioners for medical advice, prescriptions, health tips and referral services.
Dr. Caroline Baker, CEO of the NICH GP Alliance in Surrey, Northwestern, said: “The general practitioners in Surrey, Northwest, like the general practitioners across the country, are struggling to cope with the growing population ageing, budgetary constraints and labor crisis. The problem of increased workload. Northwestern Surrey's Integrated Care Services Alliance (NICS) is working to expand the outpatient department to help alleviate this pressure. Therefore, we decided to work with LIVI to provide high quality video consultation services for our patients. LIVI provides a fast, safe and effective alternative to our NHS patients, which will benefit patients of all ages while helping to ease the pressure on local online GP consultation practices."
Johannes Schildt, CEO and co-founder of LIVI, said: “The primary health care system across Europe is under tremendous pressure. As the largest digital primary care provider in Europe, we are excited to work with national health services to create A new way to help patients."
The NHS survey released in August showed that nearly a quarter of all people in the UK had to wait more than a week to see a general practitioner in the area. The same survey found that 11% of patients who did not have a general practitioner appointment went to A&E (ambulance and emergency medical services), which put a huge financial burden on the A&E system and NHS. LIVI's online services reduce the burden of primary care services by providing accessible appointments for patients of all conditions and needs.
In addition, LIVI is Sweden's largest provider of online cognitive behavioral therapy. The company also intends to extend its mental health services to the UK to provide patients with safe, fast and convenient professional mental health services while expanding their business.
