Why Doctors Choose Jelly Health
Telehealth should empower doctors — not expose them. That’s why Jelly Health works with only a small number of carefully vetted telehealth platforms. We place doctors within their scope, with full support at every step.

The Medical Board of Australia’s guidelines for telehealth consultations outline clear expectations for safe, appropriate telehealth use. They include practical considerations such as:
- introducing yourself and your role to the patient
- checking the patient’s identity
- ensuring the consultation space is private and the technology is reliable
- documenting that telehealth was used and the type of technology used
- checking patients understand how to use the technology (including responding to technology failure)
- checking patients understand the limitations of telehealth, including alternatives and the possible need for in-person follow-up.
The Board states that a real-time conversation (in-person, video, or telephone) with the patient is required.
To work safely in telehealth, your medical indemnity must cover the full scope of how you practice, including online and remote consultations. Your policy should specifically include:
- Telehealth consultations (video and telephone)
- Synchronous care (written requests, repeat prescriptions, secure messaging), where appropriate for your scope
- Clinical follow-up and documentation obligations
- Work undertaken through approved telehealth platforms
Modern indemnity policies recognise that doctors now deliver care through various methods, and your cover should match your actual practice pattern.
Your indemnity must protect you for telehealth as long as:
- Both you and your patient are in Australia, or
- You are temporarily overseas (generally up to 120 days) while treating Australian patients, or
- Your patient is temporarily outside Australia (usually less than 90 days) and you are practising in Australia
You cannot provide telehealth where you or the patient are located in the United States or where US law applies, unless your insurer expressly covers it.
If you are outside Australia while consulting, you must maintain:
- AHPRA registration, and
- Any local licensing or indemnity requirements for the country you are in.
