Tele-Health Consultation
Derived from Greek word "Tele" meaning "distance" and Latin word "mederi" meaning "to heal”, telemedicine is the form of primary care where the patient seeks the doctor’s advice about non-emergency medical problems which don’t require doctor’s location visit. It doesn’t replace face-to-face consultation when it is needed, but complements it. In order to provide grass root level access points for health consultation among communities through digital medium, CSC is offering video based tele-consultation service throughout India at affordable rates. CSC partnered with Apollo Hospitals Limited in 2014 to allow the VLEs across the country to facilitate the tele-consultations with doctors from Apollo Hospitals. In 2016, CSC launched its own tele-health consultation services throughout India through Allopathic, Homeopathic and Ayurvedic doctors across the country.
