India’s telemedicine application eSanjeevani has completed 14 crore consultations.
What is eSanjeevani?
eSanjeevani is a cloud-based integrated telemedicine solution of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Govt. of India.
It is a telemedicine app that provides both doctor-to-doctor and doctor-to-patient telecommunication.
It is being designed, developed, deployed and maintained by The Centre for Development and Advanced Computing (C-DAC), Mohal
eSanjeevani service is available in two variants:
– The first one is eSanjeevani Ayushman Bharat-Health and Wellness Centre (AB-HWC): It is the Doctor-to-Doctor telemedicine service through which the beneficiaries visiting a HWC can virtually connect to doctors/ specialists in the Hub that could be at tertiary healthcare facility/hospital/medical college.
– This enables the government to provide general and specialized health services in rural areas and isolated communities.
