Title

BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN RURAL–URBAN HEALTH CARE DIVIDE THROUGH TELEMEDICINE

Abstract

Although, there had been substantial improvements in the health care sector, getting access to diagnosis and treatment has remained a great challenge for the rural population. 75% of the populations of India live in villages, while 75% of doctors work in cities, resulting in limited access to basic health care in rural areas. In order to avail even primary health care services, people in villages in these days need to travel long distances which adds to their expenses, besides other complications of convenience and all. Health care, being the fundamental need of people at large, it becomes necessary to ensure that such facilities are available at the door steps, which ought to be, accessible, affordable, and sustainable. In this scenario, the role of Telemedicine, as a cheapest and fastest way to disseminate specialized healthcare to remote regions of the country, assumes significance. This is a viable option to mitigate the gap between supply and demand of health care services. In recent times due to COVID-19 the need of Telemedicine services has become the felt need, due to sudden surge in demand for consultation and assistance. Both the central and state governments have started to rethink their strategy and have tried to speed up in resolving the long pending hurdles in expanding the coverage of Telemedicine networks. The present paper aims to highlight the present state of Telemedicine Network in India and necessary measures to be taken in order to address the ongoing crisis in this sector.
