Clinic and hospital read the same treatment record, and stable patients keep appointments by video. The app has over 30,000 sign-ups. About 381 of roughly 2,000 regular endocrinology patients actually use it.
what does this mean?

Bangkok's health department and Vajira Hospital run the Dusit Model, a prototype area linking seven of the city's public health service centres and four community clinics in Dusit, Phra Nakhon, Bang Sue and Bang Phlat to the hospital. NECTEC's e-Referral system lets staff at both ends read the same treatment record in real time, and stable chronic patients keep appointments by video through the Vajira@Home app, with medicine posted to them. At the July 2022 launch, NECTEC said e-Referral was ready to use at all 11 city hospitals.
📊 Impact
A peer-reviewed survey of 389 Vajira Hospital outpatients in the Dusit area (Scientific Reports, 2025; fielded December 2024 to January 2025) found 271 (69.7%) accepted telemedicine, but acceptance dropped sharply with age: 78.2% of millennials, 46.7% of Generation X, and just 1 of 13 respondents aged 60 or over. A companion study of the same sample found 81.2% satisfied and 72.5% intending to keep using the service.
🎓 Lesson
Registration is not use: Vajira's deputy director reported over 30,000 app sign-ups, yet only about 381 of the roughly 2,000 regular endocrinology patients, near 20%, were actually consulting by video.
