TELEMEDICINE

Video-telemedicine applications allow patients in remote areas to receive the same level of care as found in the country’s most respected hospitals. SM@RTNET’s network, together with available video-telemedicine facilities, will enable medical professionals to:

• Improve access and convenience for patients in remote areas
  
  

• Minimize patient and doctor travel
  

• Enable seamless access to medical specialists
  

• Establish a strong community between providers and patients
  

• Increase access to continuing medical education and professional development through interactive training and “real time” interaction between medical colleagues
