No one can escape writing about the new Coronavirus . With the current scenario, I have written about and even appeared for an interview with Blogchatter about Coronavirus. It’s also one form of telehealth. Offering health education through technology.

How is the Health of the Nation: The report is an eye-opener!

Telehealth/Telemedicine allows Registered Medical professionals to assess, evaluate, diagnose, counsel, offer treatment. In remote locations, patients can access medical expertise quickly, efficiently, and without travel.

How to find your doctor in Indian Medical Council Register

I started offering telemedicine advice since 2013 when I signed up with the Lybrate platform. Lybrate needs registered medical practitioners to upload their qualifications, including registration number and details, to the platform for verification. You can check the Doctor’s credentials, reviews, advice, and many more.

I started my website Healthwealthbridge in 2014 to have a platform to explore writing, but also write about ENT diseases, common healthcare FAQ s, health, nutrition, and educational material for those who want to take responsibility for their own health. It’s now also a quick and easy way to offer Telehealth/telemedicine services. The following part has necessary self-promotional elements, but I think you will forgive me.

Healthcare is a two-way street.

Until you commit to being responsible and choose the right healthy lifestyle practices, few things can help you. India’s population has made the doctor-patient ratio facing a crisis. More so in the Coronavirus issue amongst many.

People are ignoring Self-quarantine and self-reporting rules and totally ignoring Lockdown in many places. But all is not lost. If we take care of listening to good advice, follow the lockdown, we will be okay.

But if not …

It’s now the survival of the fittest -Darwin said it and its still true.

Many health care practitioners are moving to offer services through audio, video, email, and text chats.

India released a National Digital Health Blueprint detailed framework in January 2020. This is good, and we need to adapt to it quickly. Both Doctors and patients.

Luckily the penetration of telecom services is much better than other sectors, and this helps us provide health education, primary care, First aid, follow-ups at different levels, even at a remote location.

Remember, you can text me, send audio messages, send video messages, request live telecalls, WhatsApp calls, and video consultation. Consulting through telehealth protects patients under the same confidentiality with restrictions for a specific category of medicines. In case you are interested, you can enquire with your Doctor whether they are providing telehealth services/Telemedicine services.
