Areas of benefit are:
- Radiology: It includes the transfer of medical images (x-ray, MRI, etc.) to the radiologist located in a remote location to diagnose. The most widely used telemedicine technology in the United States.
- Disease surveillance: Remote surveillance screens replace Holter-based surveillance systems in hospitals. It also allows the patient to stay at home with surveillance data delivered to the doctor via the internet line, as well as the wide spread of fetal monitoring techniques and pulmonary function monitoring.
- Correctional care: where prisoners in the United States receive guaranteed health care.
- Employees of government agencies: Many federal agencies are responsible for the health care of large numbers of their staff, and have been heavily involved in the use of telemedicine techniques. Since launching its space invasion program, NASA has become a leader in the development of telemedicine in remote locations.
- Telemedicine can provide three future services, such as telemedicine as an export service. Often, the services of people in many countries are substandard in terms of access to specialized health care due to lack of trained specialists or poor health care delivery system. Due to the successive innovations in the fields of computing and communication technology, many elements of medical practice can be provided despite the distance of geographical distances, and this may be spread across a city or across a country or even across the world.
- Home care: As the average age of the population increases in most developed countries, telecommuting care is one of the fastest growing prospects worldwide.
The Internet is the next logical step in using the Internet as a means of providing health care. Many companies quietly invest in telecommunications and health care services in an attempt to emerge as key institutions in the areas of consultation, diagnosis, treatment, and the provision of prescription drugs. This is done through on-line communication, usually in the form of a system in which the consumer pays the value of those services by credit card.
Although telemedicine is still a modern technology, it is rapidly changing. Taking advantage of recent developments in communications, low costs of applying modern technologies, and the emergence of the Internet, telemedicine growth over the next five to 10 years may have profound and revolutionary effects in delivering Medical care around the world.
