Virtual Fracture Clinic Model in India: A Technological Innovation.

Recent studies have reported Virtual Fracture Clinics (VFCs) to be able to provide a safe, cost-effective model of patient care in a subset of musculoskeletal injuries. Limitations and shortcomings of Virtual Fracture Clinics (VFCs) in India can be mitigated with effective communication, enhanced documentation, appropriate training, and information governance. This pathway is not a replacement for conventional 'face-to-face' evaluation but a credible option to complement the delivery of trauma and orthopaedic care in the future in India.
