| TeleVital Launches India Operations May 27,
2002 |
| US-based TeleVital Inc, which has developed
a browser-based integrated electronic patient care system, has announced
its operations and the launch of its VitalWeb software in India,
which is expected to benefit telemedicine players in the country.
Inaugurating the Indian operations Karnataka state minister for
higher and medical education Dr G Parameswara said, the government
has an ambitious plan to start telemedicine in the district hospitals
and then extend it to taluks and later to public health centers.
"The government is planning to set up a task force comprising
TeleVital, government departments and hospitals to coordinate the
entire telemedicine program in the state," he said.
Telemedicine is the most effective method to extend specialty
care to the rural people, who do not have the money or the accessibility
to avail of medical service otherwise, he added.
Addressing the media, TeleVital president and CTO Kishore Kumar
said, "Telemedicine is an area with huge growth potential, as the
time and cost involved in availing super-specialty health care could
be minimized by using it." "In India, telemedicine will help people
in remote geographical areas get the services of a medical specialist
in real time," Mr Kumar said.
