Abstract

 Telemedicine is becoming an important part of clinical practice in today’s armamentarium. Telemedicine has various utilities like tele consultation, tele surgery, tele education, tele monitoring, tele pharmacy, tele nursing etc. Improved technology and use of simple gazettes have contributed to its utility even in remote areas. Hence telemedicine is not confined to big cities only. It is being used remote towns and villages also. It may not be possible for everyone, especially belonging to remote areas, to visit at higher centers regularly because of distance, money and time factors. Telemedicine plays very important role in such scenarios where it not only helps patients by providing benefits of specialist’s consultation but also is prevents the progression and complications of the disease by reducing the visit gaps. Through this article we highlight the use of telemedicine in saving time and money of the patient with improved outcomes.
