Doha: Direct appointments at Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC) OP clinics have begun as part of further easing of Kovid restrictions. From now on, patients can talk face to face with doctors. Meanwhile, some follow-up treatments and repeated prescriptions will remain online. Patients who have booked an OP will be contacted through the Nasmac app to let them know if the appointment is direct or online.
It’s time to resume direct OP
Earlier, the outpatient appointments were made fully virtual for the safety of patients, visitors and the general public. Abdullah Al Ansari said. The decision to resume direct appointments is now part of a move to gradually move back to normal, with Kovid removing restrictions. He added that follow-up appointments, such as prescriptions, would be made over the telephone.
Kovid will tighten the code of conduct
Direct OP will be implemented in full compliance with the Code of Conduct, including social distance and mask understanding. All patients arriving at HMC OP must show the status of the Ihtiras mobile app. Admission will be after checking body temperature. Only those who have made an appointment in advance will be allowed to leave. On the day of the appointment, he said that if there were any symptoms of Kovid, he should call 16060 instead of coming directly and change the appointment to another day.
