(PharmaNewsWire.Com, May 18, 2017 ) Affordable healthcare is the right of the citizens of a country. However, delivering quality healthcare to all their citizens is one of the challenges faced by all governments. The problem is common to both developing nations as well as developed nations. The only difference is the extent of the problem. In regions such as the Americas, quality healthcare is not affordable for the rural population.
Patients need to visit hospitals for face-to-face consultations and for followups. These visits, including followups for prescription refills, lead to increased cost of care, which decreases affordability and also brings down optimum utilization of healthcare resources, such as doctors, nursing staff, and physicians. The healthcare sector is looking for solutions that can transform the healthcare industry by bringing about changes in healthcare delivery.
With the advent of technology and increased penetration of the Internet worldwide, telehealth and mhealth have emerged as alternatives, especially for treating people in remote areas. Telehealth provides remote delivery of healthcare related services using telecommunication technologies. mHealth is another solution that delivers quality healthcare to remote areas. It leverages mobile devices to address problems of accessibility and affordability.
Healthcare providers have realized the potential benefits of these technologies, but their adoption has been slow. Over the past two years, the adoption rate of telehealth has increased at a very promising rate, and mHealth is another booming concept.
