By reducing the requirement for patients to travel to major centres for assessment, this project is expected to result in significant direct savings per individual patient. Indirect cost reductions will also result from the minimisation of travel for patients, with the potential for national savings in transport infrastructure costs, greenhouse gases emissions, and decreasing other undesirable consequences of either private or public transport travel for patients and/or specialist physicians. Further indirect benefits include incidental learning by staff working with patients in remote location through the remote link. Other advantages include happier patients as they will not need to leave their home and loved ones as often.

通过减少患者前往主要中心进行评估的需要，该项目预计将为每位患者直接节省大量费用。患者出行的最小化也将间接降低成本，有可能节省国家交通基础设施成本、温室气体排放，并减少患者和/或专科医生乘坐私人或公共交通出行的其他不良后果。进一步的间接好处包括通过远程链接在偏远地区与患者一起工作的工作人员偶然学习。其他好处还包括病人更快乐，因为他们不需要经常离开家和亲人。
