Telemedicine and Community Health Projects in Asia - 21/11/20
Résumé |
Telemedicine has the potential to deliver high-quality, affordable health care to underserved populations that otherwise would not have adequate access to care. The authors provide a snapshot of several telemedicine initiatives that have used information and communication technologies to connect patients with health care providers across various Asian countries with differing socioeconomic statuses. They highlight several factors thought to contribute to the success of telemedicine programs, such as financial sustainability, ease of use, and utilization of existing resources. Challenges these programs have faced include lack of technological infrastructure, limitations in funding, and conflicting health system priorities.
