discuss health technology that you think should be more widely adopted? why aren't we already using this today? how can we start to transition to this health technology?
Since the world had undergone revolutionary change as for as the matter of technology is concerned, so there is need of similar change in the health care system in today's time. smartphones and tablets are starting to replace conventional monitoring and recording systems, and people are now given the option of undergoing a full consultation in the privacy of their own homes that has taken the health system out of the hospitals boundary. health technology that i think should be widely adopted is telemedicine or telehealth , due to covid restrictions telehealth has emerged to be a perfect medical alternatives which enable a virtual interaction with the health staff. This need to be adopted widely. There are some limitations into it that doctor can not do the physical examination with the telehealth system and emergency cases can't be managed with it. These are the biggest hurdle working against this new concept of telehealth, but of course it can prove out to be a good method of filling the gap between health facilities and common people and it should be deployed in the society to manage the normal health related issues and create health awareness and for promoting the health education in society.
Hope this helps. All the best ?
