Telemedicine: A Mechanism for Change

For people living in the world’s poorest nations, low life expectancy is a consequence of limited access to professional healthcare and health information due to poverty.

Information Communications and Technologies (ICT) are a critical link in reducing the human cost of poverty because they can eliminate distance and location as barriers to providing and receiving quality care. Telemedicine provides a mechanism for change.  It offers tools, resources and other opportunities for capacity building and sustainability in healthcare, education, and ongoing community development. 

Adopt A Village’s Telemedicine program will improve healthcare in developing countries by forming a network of local care providers, medical educators, and specialists from around the world who exchange vital diagnostic knowledge, treatment plans, and care maintenance and prevention strategies through a system of collecting, sharing and storing information.
