At the end of the consultation, the device will issue printed or recorded advice along with prescriptions, and there is also a braille option. A "vending machine" also dispenses many prescriptions. Sick notes can also be issued. The online version is less sophisticated although in some circumstances diagnostic equipment can be provided for sufferers of chronic illness or disability.
