The process enables providing remote healthcare with the patient and the doctor physically present in different locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the concept of telemedicine started with the birth of telecommunications technology, it wasn\u2019t until the 20th century that the general population started using these technologies. While the field of virtual healthcare in India was developed to provide medication to people living in rural areas, this method has turned out to be a boon at the times of a pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Telemedicine_Boon_or_Bane_for_Doctors\"><\/span><strong>Telemedicine: Boon or Bane for Doctors?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Telemedicine has definitely emerged as a boon for doctors and is gaining momentum. Here are a few reasons why a telemedicine app is becoming advantageous for doctors as well as patients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Patients need not travel or move to a health facility to reach out to a doctor. Not only does it save time for patients, but it also enables them to discuss test results or treatment effects at the comfort of their own home.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Telemedicine in India also eliminates unnecessary admissions and readmissions of patients who do not require crucial care. This helps others who are in dire need of getting more attention.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Another major benefit of a telemedicine app is that it opens doors and removes boundaries by offering various resources and medical attention to rural parts of the country.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"335\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beatoapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/doctor.jpg\" alt=\"telemedicine\" class=\"wp-image-11222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beatoapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/doctor.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.beatoapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/doctor-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beatoapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/doctor-420x235.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.beatoapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/doctor-150x84.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.beatoapp.com\/blog\/diabetes-and-women-prevention-and-care\/\">Read More: Diabetes and Women | Prevention and Care<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_different_types_of_telemedicine\"><\/span><strong>What are the different types of telemedicine?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Telemedicine in India involves different methods such as<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Telephonic consultation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chat mode<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>WhatsApp<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Video consultation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Full-fledged consultation using approved electronic medical record<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Telemedicine_the_Future_of_Healthcare_in_India\"><\/span><strong>Is Telemedicine the Future of Healthcare in India?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned above, the term telemedicine became a popular concept in the 20th century, especially after the pandemic of COVID-19 hit the world. As technology is advancing at an exponential rate, accessibility and affordability towards healthcare are growing. Although there are a lot of challenges faced by healthcare providers and beneficiaries, telemedicine apps are continuing to grow and becoming convenient medical care. Moreover, the rise in mobile technology is impacting the development of healthcare in India. With more and more mobile health apps coming up, people are now able to monitor their health with ease using these technologies. The more people become technologically savvy, the more they will explore alternative ways to get care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the world of telemedicine continues to grow, the benefits of this field are beyond imagination, especially due to low healthcare costs, easy patient access, and improved quality care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"BeatO_Telemedicine_Platform_Virtual_Endocrine_Clinic\"><\/span><strong>BeatO &amp; Telemedicine Platform (Virtual Endocrine Clinic)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Telemedicine is no doubt the future of the healthcare industry.
