Abstract

Ageing population increases the demand for primary care and long-term care and requires adequacies on social systems, such as healthcare systems. One possible solution to tackle the increase in demand for primary care is the implementation of telehealth. In this sense, this research aims to use hybrid simulation to evaluate the impacts of teleconsultation on delivering of primary care service offered by public health in a southern region of Sao Paulo city, Brazil. The model supports decision-making around implementing telehealth in public health in Brazil and evaluating a new healthcare delivery impact on patient access to care.
