FURTHER RESULTS - Oldham uses tds as part of its Action on Dermatology.  tds sees all the patients in Oldham.  There is no waiting list in this area.  For the last 2 years tds has worked with the PCG's in the Hornchurch area of Essex  by offering telemedical diagnositics.  The Trust re-evaluated its service provision and went out to competitive tender for a more integrated dermatology service.  tds has secured that contract working with the Trust and its local consultants to provide a service that enables them to prioritise their dermatology patients and make the best use of their limited Consultants resources.
