One of the largest GP partnerships in England has brought on Push Doctor to provide its patients with online consultations

Modality Partnership, which serves around 400,000 patients, has announced it is partnering with Push Doctor, a digital GP app provider, to offer online consultations to nearly a quarter of its patients.

Push Doctor will provide online consultations, under a pilot basis, to more than 99,000 patients across six Modality practices. Following this, depending on the success of the pilot, the provider hopes to roll the service out to all of its patients.

If the pilot is successful it will exceed the number of NHS patients who are served by another online consultation provider, GP at Hand.
