Jointly organized by the Philippine Academy of Family Physicians (PAFP), the Malaysian Family Medicine Specialists’ Association (MFMSA), the Hong Kong Doctors Union (HKDU), and MIMS Education, the activity will focus on the role of telemedicine and telehealth in improving primary care.
This CME course is also in line with the theme for this year’s World Family Doctor Day (May 19) titled ‘The Heart of Healthcare’, organizers said.
Telemedicine is the use of telecommunications technology to provide healthcare services at a distance. Meanwhile, telehealth is a broader term that includes telemedicine as well as other forms of digital health, such as electronic health records (EHRs) and patient portals.
The webinar will feature two resource speakers:

- Dr. Ana Luisa Neves, Advanced Research Fellow & Associate Director, NIHR Patient Safety Translational Research Centre, Imperial College London, London, UK
According to organizers, Dr. Gupta and Dr. Neves will be discussing the latest trends, opportunities, and challenges in telehealth and telemedicine. “They will also be sharing practical insights on leveraging technology to enhance patient outcomes, increase access to care, and improve clinical workflows,” they added.
Primary Care Asia has already opened pre-registration on April 14, and will close by 16:00 on May 25.
