Are you are a harrowed
patient waiting, in agony, for an operation that is scheduled weeks or
months away? Why is that? Well, it could be because your neighborhood
friendly doctor or medical establishment is over booked, or there is a
shortage of doctors. Another reason that you continue to live in pain
could be because you are under-insured, not insured or the operation is
not fully covered by your insurance company - and you just cannot afford
the costs.
Well for all of you,
medical tourism is probably the fastest, most convenient and inexpensive
option. And it can be very safe too! And guess what - you could enjoy a
visit to some exotic locale too! So how is all this possible?...Read

usinesses today, span
borders effortlessly to ensure the right market for their products or
services. To ensure a robust presence and quick response there is a need,
therefore, to setup up offices in most financial capitals of the world. A
presence in London, the prince of cities as far as business is concerned,
is almost mandatory for any and every progressive business house. An
agency in London is not only great for business but also the prestige of a
company. This requirement is even more critical for entities in the
Healthcare Informatics, Healthcare (Hospitals) and Healthcare ancillaries
spaces. Such centers provide agile support to maintain a high uptime for
the entity's products/services.
Regrettably the
downside is the heavy cost and effort of maintaining such a branch or
agency on foreign soil. Add to this, the Great Recession then
automatically, the need to cut costs (without cutting on quality) becomes
every CEO's top priority. SO how does one bell the cat? Not having an
agency is not an option. Ideally, what one needs is an office in London
costing a fraction of the real costs, an office that can be started up and
wound down with minimal or no costs attached. Impossible? Not any longer!
We are proposing to
offer to you a Services and Support Agency in London that would represent
our staff to your clients as your staff and carry out almost all
activities that you desire from your branch office. Our USP is to not
just represent you in routine clerical matters but also support you in
marketing, Medical Tourism, implementation and other patient and client
support activities.

The term 'telemedicine' has been derived from the Greek 'tele' meaning 'at a distance' and
'medicine' which is from the Latin word 'mederi' meaning 'healing'. This phrase
was first coined in the 70s by Thomas Bird.
"rapid access to shared and remote medical expertise by means of telecommunications and information technologies, no matter where the patient or relevant information is located."
In plain
speak, telemedicine is a process by which a patient is able to communicate
his problems (along with, if necessary, details of medical investigations)
to a doctor many miles away and receive necessary and relevant medical
advice. Imagine the advantages it confers upon a patient who is miles away
from the nearest medical aid post, in some cases this could even be
life saving. In a lighter vein, when your doc, on the phone, told
you to 'take an aspirin and call me in the morning' he was actually
practicing telemedicine!
Telemedicine
is cutting edge technology which has the potential to enlighten YOUR life
whatever your
background. As a patient
it makes life extremely comfortable and brings super-specialist services
almost to your door step, where ever you live. To a hospital
administrator or the CEO of a hospital it means extended
reach, higher efficiency, greater patient satisfaction and higher profits.
As a rural GP
you find the 24 hr advice of specialists not only a great support but also
a relief as it saves many of your patients long trips to the nearest city
hospital. An insurance agency
sees it as a means to cover a larger group of people at lower costs.
Telemedicine
is primarily focused on providing support towards curing an illness. Today
we have expanded the scope of telemedicine to include the preventive and
promotive aspects of healthcare. This new avatar is called Telehealth,
Tele-Health, EHealth or E-Health depending on which group or company you
are from. Bottom line - they all mean the same. To know more about EHealth
or Telehealth please click here. For formal
definitions of EHealth or Telehealth click here.
Whichever
way you see it, it is definitely a winner. Ask your Health
service provider about telemedicine today! Discuss it with your
Hospital superintendent when you next visit your hospital.
