Gujarat: Soon, free tele-consultation, medicine delivery

At present, the government is in the process of selecting agencies that will provide trained doctors for telemedicine consultation and distribute free medicine to citizens on the basis of e-prescriptions. This system will prove to be a game changer for senior citizens and those who find it difficult to visit a doctor and even for those who cannot afford medicines from pharmacies. Initially, the government will roll out the consultation service.

The eSanjeevani OPD and medicine supply Services will also be in sync with nearby government hospitals for treatment of citizens like further diagnosis and operations etc.
