Over 70% of the population in India is spread out in rural areas, and yet there is limited or no access to quality healthcare facilities in these areas. Due to which, medical care is sought very late in the disease-cycle, resulting in medical complications and huge expenses. Telemedicine, e-Healthcare and m-Health technologies are affordable and scalable ways to bridge this access gap.
