Nagpur: “Dear Mr XXX, your follow-up consultation with Dr.
Yyy approaches within 2 days.
Please contact to schedule your appointment.
Thank you.” Building such messages on cellphones has become part of life for many patients today.
SMS not only reminded the date of follow-up consultation but also about periodic blood tests and heart examinations, changes in drugs and ongoing recipes.
Maintaining health electronic records is very much here, and many have had their e-health records.
Pandemic has provided an impulse that has never happened to this trend.
“I have observed that patients who have regular follow-up do not require emergency entrance tickets and they also do not suffer from acute disease.
I have saved the patient’s record online.
I can access this note from anywhere,” Cardiology said Dr.
Amar AmaMa.
Like Amale, most doctors who understand technology in Nagpur maintain their patient record electronically.
Now, step forward, even the patient maintains their e-health record.
“Most of my medical records, directly from blood reports to the recipe, are on my cellphone.
I can share it with my doctor anytime.
It’s convenient for all of us,” said Suresh Patel, a retired government employee.
Another proof of more takers for e-health records is the launch of a multinational health profile platform in Nagpur.
“We have launched our ‘LinkedCare’ platform in Nagpur.
Free for patients.
One can maintain a full-life health record on this plarmform,” said Hans-Ethard Reiter, President and CEO of the Group.
According to Reiter, patients can create a digital safe health ID that allows them to access and share their health data with health care providers.
Even the National Health Authority from the Ministry of Health and the welfare of the families of the central government has made a digital health ecosystem available for ordinary people.
“Health ID is the future of health care.
You can make it for free on the NDHM website.
This will allow you to access information, directly from receipt to care and discharge in a way without paper.
This is an integral part of Ayushman Bharat,” said a.
Senior official from the Division Health Office.
