What is telehealth at DISHARC?

Telehealth is the use of digital information and communication technologies, such as computers and mobile devices, to access health care services remotely and manage your health care through the internet. These may be technologies you use from home or that your doctor uses to improve or support health care services. DISHARC has been providing dermatology services to the people who are unable to visit the hospital. We have set up telehealth clinic where patients can get consultation with our dermatologists. Prescribed medications are then distributed by a health worker accordingly.

How does telemedicine work?

Telemedicine is the use of technology that enables remote healthcare (telehealth). Basically it makes it possible for physicians to treat patients whenever needed and wherever the patient is, by using a computer or smartphone.

The goals of telehealth, also called e-health or m-health (mobile health), include the following:

  • Make health care accessible to people who live in rural or isolated communities.
  • Make services more readily available or convenient for people with limited mobility, time or transportation options.
  • Provide access to medical specialists.
  • Improve communication and coordination of care among members of a health care team and a patient.
  • Provide support for self-management of health care.

Few situations in which telemedicine can be a great alternative to the traditional health care system:

  • Diagnoses of common medical problems such as headache, sore throat, back pain, digestive troubles,
  • Inquiries about various medical issues for home treatments,
  • Post-treatment check-ins or follow up for chronic care Faster refill of short-term medical prescriptions,
  • Holidays, weekends, late night or any other situation when regular medical care is not possible,
  • Patient inability to leave the house due to sickness or bad weather conditions.
