Programme Brief

What This Programme Delivers

Telemedicine is the use of digital communication technologies - such as video calls, mobile apps, and online messaging to provide remote medical care. It allows the patients to consult with healthcare professionals without the need for physical visits to hospitals or clinics. This health initiative was established in response to the rising burden of chronic non-communicable diseases within the county.
