What might TAADIS be like for GPs and patients in 5 years?

  • Advances such as faster internet and retina/face recognition technology could improve patient access to the website.

  • Improving the website so that patients can enter their weight, blood sugar levels and other information and receive individualised lifestyle advice will support patient self-management.  

  • GP-Patient communication could be improved by the transfer of data entered by patients to their GPs' computers.  

  • TAADIS can help build links between GPs and allied health providers using web-based communication, which would involve GP referrals using encrypted emails and communication back from allied health providers.  

  • Preparation of Care Plans could be automated, with plans individualised for each patient using TAADIS data and with service providers already identified according to individual patient needs.
