Telemedicine

We provide telemedicine services that use medical information exchanged from one site to another via electronic communications to improve a patient’s clinical health status. Telemedicine includes a growing variety of applications and services using two-way video, email, smart phones, wireless tools and other forms of telecommunications technology.

Telemedicine and e-Health coverage includes:

- Clinical telemedicine practice

- Technical advances

- Medical connectivity

- Enabling technologies

- Education

- Health policy and regulation

- Biomedical and health services research

We use telecommunication and information technologies in order to provide clinical health care at a distance. It helps eliminate distance barriers and can improve access to medical services that would often not be consistently available in distant rural communities. It is also used to save lives in critical care and emergency situations.
