Abstract:
Telemedicine is a means of improving care quality and access in rural areas, but limited evidence is available on how telemedicine affects the hospital-community relationship. Telemedicine is a rapidly growing new mode of healthcare practice. It is particularly used and needed in remote areas. There are many reasons to develop telemedicine clinics for assessment and management of diseases. Time constraints, location, and poor weather conditions can all impact on the ability of patients and providers to attend rural clinics. The utility of telemedicine in the diagnosis and subsequent follow-up appears promising in the literature, as it provides a viable means of assessing cognition in patients in remote areas with limited access to medical specialists.
In this project work, a web application has been developed; where various types of users like medical staff, doctor, and patient can login. Medical staff can setup appointments, create or update prescriptions. The web application has full support of video conference among doctor and patient. Millions of people in rural area can use this system with only internet connection. By using this system they can take advantage of its technological capacity and geographically communication problem. This system is extendable.
