Health services in Valdivia, Chile collaborate with university to promote the use of telemedicine

The Valdivia Health Service (SSV) and the Universidad Austral de Chile (UACh) agreed to a collaboration to license the use of the telemedicine training platform.

The agreement was communicated by the SVV and its director Victor Hugo Jaramillo, this agreement includes and regulates the use of the Telemedicine Training Platform developed by the Virtual Practice module of the Institute of Biochemistry and Microbiology (BIMI) of the UACh.

This collaboration has been taking place since 2014, when BIMI authorized SVV to use its module that was used to develop the Telemedicine Training Platform that was developed by BIMI researchers Ana María Von Chrismar, Dr. Alejandro Calude and Gustavo Delgado. This platform was modified over time and is currently used for training professionals in distance clinical processes. Through the agreement, BIMI delivers the administration of the platform to the SSV, so that public authorities can improve and modify the system.

Von Chrismar highlighted the collaboration and explained that the agreement manages to formalize a collaboration for the implementation of virtual practices for biochemistry and that it will also “strengthen the development of better-quality units with better coverage in order to strengthen the training of health officials and students. On the other hand, the possibility of studying the formative impact of virtual activities is a challenge that we will have to address together both institutions.”

Jaramillo expressed the following about the context in which this Convention is announced: “It is given in a particular year when the covid-19 pandemic has required us to innovate, accelerate processes of change and introduce new strategies; and in this sense, having this platform, but also being able to modify and improve it through the daily work of our establishments, will allow us to increase the resolution and support the training of our officials.”

Furthermore, Dr. Carlos Fierro, who serves as head of the Telemedicine Unit of the SSV, explained the importance of “the enhancing effect of this Convention, which will allow to amplify the capacity for development and innovation with respect to the use and strengthening of the Training Platform, which has been a key part in the development of the SSV's medical tele strategy. Thanks to this, a thousand 53 training activities have been carried out to date and 442 courses have been certified.”
