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.
