Induction Healthcare’s product suite also includes Induction Guidance, which is used by staff members of more than 126 hospitals across the UK, Mexico and New Zealand to access controlled treatment information and guidelines via intranet or working remotely via app.
Additionally, Induction Zesty is a portal used by 280,000 patients to book and access their appointments, read clinical letters, and provide data to their care teams remotely.
The deal will also provide improved services and support across the UK and Australia, where the systems offered by the two companies are already in use.

“This partnership will help maintain the momentum of change for healthcare systems, which have seen a significant increase in remote consultations, even after local restrictions have been lifted.”
