How start-ups will help Australia get back on its feet after coronavirus

"In February 99 per cent of all medical appointments made on our platforms were for face-to-face visits. In March, we had to move all of them on to telehealth. Our practitioner base grew from 42,000 to 45,000 between the end of February [and the] end of May. And what we're seeing is existing practitioners also using more of our cashless payments features than they previously were." Alison Hardacre, Halaxy's co-founder and co-CEO.

Why the telehealth utopia is still a distant dream

"I had to get a script after an appointment yesterday and the doctor said she could fax it to my pharmacy. People see fax as secure, but what's to stop someone picking it up from the fax machine?" Alison Hardacre, Halaxy's co-founder and co-CEO.

Tech start-ups 'left out of JobKeeper'

"Start-ups that have taken this path – and it's a legitimate business strategy to do so given it's what Facebook, Uber and other big well-known tech companies do – will have been seriously reviewing their business and making some very tough calls," Alison Hardacre, Halaxy's co-founder and co-CEO.

5 startup execs reveal their top work-from-home hacks for a long COVID-19 winter

"During uncertain times like these, keeping the routine alive is super important to keep the team connected, motivated and engaged.

Replacing human customer service with AI is not the answer to cost cutting

"At Halaxy, we can’t afford to not hire people. That’s right: using human customer assistance is actually making us money and not costing us, despite what so many tech companies — and beyond — assume." Alison Hardacre, Halaxy's co-founder and co-CEO.

'Complete lack of reliability': Warnings as virus spurs remote work boom

The importance of ethical products by health-tech companies

"Starting a health-tech that focuses on coordinating appointments, tracking patient records/health data and delivering it in a simple software solution doesn't sound as sexy as marketing a device that will revolutionise blood testing using a pinprick of blood. Yet it is the solution that is needed to make everything else work and to help those who actually need it." Alison Hardacre, Halaxy's co-founder and co-CEO.

So if you have the time and really want to get on top of your health without spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars, these are the tasks you can start today – for free." Alison Hardacre, Halaxy's co-founder and co-CEO.

How to successfully pull off a brand relaunch without losing customers

"In August, we undertook one of the most exciting and stressful steps in our company's life: we rebranded. For six years, we were HealthKit and now, we are Halaxy. And as exciting as that change is and what it represents for our company's future, rebranding is not an easy decision to make — nor to carry out." Alison Hardacre, Halaxy's co-founder and co-CEO.
