KATHMANDU, 19 April, 2021 (TON): Telemedicine service was launched in 42 health institutions of six districts of Karnali Province.

Currently, district hospitals and health posts in Jajarkot, Humla, Mugu, Surkhet and Dolpa are providing telemedicine services.

Telemedicine services were introduced in the District Hospital of Dolpa a month ago. Before the introduction of the service, people in far-flung villages of the district were compelled to visit city areas to seek medical help, as the district hospital did not provide specialist services.

Health workers say that in a country like Nepal, where ensuring affordable and accessible community health care is a major challenge, telemedicine service could be a game changer.

Doctors deployed at telemedicine centers would collect cases, which would be monitored by specialists. Moreover, the specialists would then advise doctors serving in remote districts on medication and treatment of patients through electronic communication means.
