Dial-JIPMER Service (24x7): Our Experience
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Medical and Health Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Telemedicine enables health services to be connected across distance by the use of information and communication technology. Role of telemedicine on emergency services has a great impact on health services. JIPMER has developed 24x7 Help Line in Casualty for patients requiring Tele-Emergency Consultations. Teleconsultation is given to people who seek medical advice and guided for future treatment based on their complaints. Use of this service helps the patient in terms of cost and time and enables them to get specialist consultation if needed in real time. From our experience, use of telemedicine through dial JIPMER service has been satisfactory for both the patient and the Doctors and can be further extended to other institutions
