The use of Information Communication Technology
to examine and or provide healthcare to a patient who is far away from the

the patient with hospital’s specialist unit or specialist doctors. Telemedicine
has several advantages such as:

Example 3 - Telemedicine ConsultationSeeking medical consultation of a specialist at the Emergency Treatment Unit (ETU) when he/she is not physically available at site.
Example 4 - Telesurgery (Remote Surgery)
