Musings of a Cardiologist

In this section I will be discussing about some of the hindrances to the use of telemedicine.

–          Attention to strategic business plans

–          Technology is changing faster than we ever imagined a state of the art tech may be outmoded tomorrow. So, a constant innovation is imperative.

–          A complex technical infrastructure.

–          A dazzling but often needless array of technology that may detract health managers from providing simple, affordable, sustainable means of telemedicine.

–          Lack of cooperation between involved parties.

–          Reluctance for telemed programs evaluation.

–          Involvement of private players who prefer corporate profits over clinical research and evaluation.
