According to a report carried out by the Consumer Choice Center in 2023, telemedicine had the greatest potential for time savings in healthcare in Australia. It was estimated in the most optimistic scenario those in Australia could save up to 362 minutes, or just over six hours, each year. Even in a conservative estimate, Australians could save almost an hour an half with an uptake in telemedicine use.
