Problem
Germany faces a growing shortage of general practitioners, particularly in rural and underserved areas, leading to limited access to primary care for a significant portion of the population. This shortage strains the existing healthcare system and necessitates innovative solutions to ensure adequate medical coverage.
Solution
LillianCare addresses the primary care gap by establishing hybrid practices that combine in-person consultations with telemedicine, leveraging physician assistants (PAs) and qualified nurses to extend the reach of doctors. These practices utilize interprofessional task sharing and modern technologies to optimize treatment processes, allowing physicians to treat patients both on-site and remotely. By empowering PAs and nurses with greater treatment responsibility under physician supervision, LillianCare enhances the availability of medical care and accelerates patient treatment. The company partners with regional stakeholders to bring general medical care to underserved regions, promoting the upskilling of qualified nurses in primary care.
