New allergy platform for regional and rural doctors

Last week, a new platform was launched to support doctors in regional and rural Australia to treat allergies. 

Allergy Assist is a platform providing doctors in regional and rural areas with access to an application, where they can submit a case and a group of specialist doctors will respond to it in 48 hours. 

The software will allow better management for patients with allergies and anaphylaxis in the regions and will reduce unnecessary referrals and visits.
