Telemedicine Programs - Patients' empowerment and life change in Nepal

 In the healthcare sector, the healthcare and IT tie-up is a big development that has been a huge boon for the general public and service providers. RPM or Remote Patient Control, which is simply a cloud-based digital platform to meet all healthcare needs, has been the most relevant contribution. The biggest players in this area who have revolutionized healthcare practices all over the world are telemedicine providers.

Advantages:

In the treatment of chronic conditions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disorders, RPM and telemedicine providers play a vital role in enabling patients to receive health care services from the comfort of their homes. By placing them in charge of their own health, they allow an individual to take control of all their healthcare needs and thus empower them. As it requires a one-on-one multimedia contact between the patient and the clinician, the associated risks are negligible.

Service mode:

The patient must upload registered health data to a web site through an app on their PC or smart device on a daily or irregular basis (depending on the health concern). There is a network of doctors and clinicians on the web site, normally operated by a telemedicine company, who can access the uploaded data. These doctors then, if and when necessary, evaluate the patient and help them keep a check on their health status. For the chronically ill and the geriatric population who have to go for checkups regularly, this method of health monitoring is very successful. Some conditions require constant monitoring, such as dementia and congestive heart failure; telemedicine providers already have a solution in the form of round-the-clock surveillance services.

Below, a description of the services is given:


1) Provision of guidance

2) Answering questions related to wellness.

3) Critical signals control

4) Consultation via video.

On a large scale, e-health facilities are used by hospitals and physicians. The various surveys and polls that indicate the popularity of these services support this fact. The global market size of these devices alone is projected to exceed US$0.98 billion by the end of 2020, according to a report on RPM devices.

The following facts have contributed to the growing popularity and demand of RPM solutions and telemedicine providers:

1) Operation quality

2) Simpleness. (The flexibility of these cloud-based telemedicine service providers makes them increasingly user-friendly; they can be used very effectively by even the elderly)

3) Minimization of expense

4) As the person does not need to physically visit a doctor, geographical restrictions can be easily handled.

5) Operation round the clock

6) On the same site, more than one disorder can be diagnosed.

7) Eliminates unnecessary admissions in hospitals.

Providers of telemedicine have made important contributions to people's better health conditions internationally and will undoubtedly continue to do so with each passing day.
