Digital services are often regarded as a solution to the growing demands on primary care services. Provision of a tool offering advice to support self-management as well as the ability to digitally consult with a General Practitioner (GP) has the potential to alleviate some of the pressure on primary care. This paper reports on a Phase II, 6-month evaluation of eConsult, a web-based triage and consultation system that was piloted across 11 GP practices across Scotland. Through a multi-method approach the evaluation explored eConsult use across practices, exposing both barriers and facilitators to its adoption. Findings suggest that expectations that eConsult would offer an additional and alternative method of accessing GP services were largely met. However, there is less certainty that it has fulfilled expectations of promoting self-help. In addition, low uptake meant that evaluation of current effectiveness was difficult for practices to quantify. The presence of an eConsult champion(s) within the practice was seen to be a significant factor in ensuring successful integration of the tool. A lack of patient and staff engagement, insufficient support and lack of protocols around processes were seen as barriers to its success.

“…12,13 In addition to direct savings, as telemedicine is much cheaper than face-to-face visits, without decreasing the quality of care patients are offered, telemedicine services are associated with other positive health outcomes, such as patients' increased adherence to medication and their better understanding of follow-up plans. 10,14,15 Moreover, web-based systems give patients living in remote areas the opportunity to have close follow-ups from experienced IBD specialists. Combined use of distance management tools, such as telephone conferencing, email communication, and video conferencing, is effective in achieving treatment targets.…”

“…There are many ways in which individuals can be encouraged to self-manage. One area that has received much attention is that of eHealth, particularly in relation to use of websites and/or apps providing information on aspects such as illness trajectories, symptoms, and treatments relating to specific conditions (Wong & Lam, 2016;Con et al, 2017). Although potentially effective, patient-based interventions such as eHealth are still currently considered limited in their "reach", and adoption of such systems still in its infancy.…”

A decision support tool for supporting individuals living with long-term conditions make informed choices: LTC-Choices tool for continuous healthcare An increasing number of individuals are now living with some form of chronic, long-term condition (LTC). The holistic perspective of LTCs makes it important to acknowledge that priorities and decisions are in fluctuation over the course of an individual's life. The landscape of digital healthcare is full of information systems that capture individuals' health data, clinical guidelines and/or advice on health conditions, which taken together can help create a comprehensive overview of suitable lifestyle choices to optimise health and well-being. Despite this, there is no evidence of existing frameworks to support individuals living with LTCs from a continuum of care perspective. In this paper we propose such a multidimensional model for a decision support tool-LTC-Choices. This tool was developed from existing work conducted by the authors around use of multicriteria to support health decision making. We illustrate how LTC-Choices can be implemented using the example of individuals living post-stroke.
