Healthcare and technology have been part of human life from the starting modern day world. The inventions in the respected fields have helped each other for benefiting the humans.
Inventions keep on happening for betterment of healthcare and technology. Both of them continually need innovative and creative approaches to improve services as a result of which it helps in the increasing utilization of both technology and healthcare facilities.
One of the areas that had previously been the cause of concern was inefficiency in the scheduling process between the surgery center & physician. Now the innovation in technology has lead to Remote physician offices which are well embedded with Internet-based access to the surgeon's surgery schedule and thereby continuously providing surgery center with much needed security and control.
Telemedicine can be simply defined as medicine delivered from distance. Patients have many chronicle health care problems can be seen by the doctors from miles away without leaving the facilities
Telemedicine physician helps in expanding the delivery area of any specialized health care system and the patients can get benefitted from it even sitting in distant places.
There are so many different ways that technology is being embedded with the medical field for betterment for example  ehealth, Telehealth, telehomecare, mHealth etc.
These telehealth programs have delivered treatments in many distant places where people otherwise would normally never had access to specialized care.
Virtual doctor’s presence improves the access of the patients from distant places to the vast range of doctors and specialists in completely secure and confidential delivery system.
The main goal of the telemedicine is to provide patient with all the consultation in their home town home or hospital unless or until it is extremely necessary
Technology makes the process of healthcare available in different corners of the world through the telemedicine but the awareness of telehealth brings in people to the network thereby improving the health and condition of people in the remote places.
According to the research done in America there is going to be an acute shortage of specialist and experienced doctors in coming years hence the idea of telemedicine and a remote physician comes out as fix for such problem.
If we look at the patients’ rate majority of patients that visit doctors have a very minor headache, cold, cough or similar things and this can be fixed by small or very little consultation of the doctors. They ideally would not need to visit any doctor even the consultation through phone can work for them.
If these patients start using remote health care then the majority of doctor’s time can be saved by giving the remedies by tele-calling and it will simultaneously save time and money of the patients as well.
