Abstract
Access to quality healthcare services remains a significant challenge in rural areas of developing countries. The integration of telemedicine into a mobile-based system offers a potential solution to bridge the healthcare gap and improve access to diagnosis and treatment. This study focused on the integration of telemedicine in a mobile-based system for remote healthcare delivery in rural settings. The proposed system allows patients in rural areas to register and schedule appointments with healthcare providers using a mobile application. It also incorporates remote monitoring, enabling patients to input health related data from monitoring devices and to receive personalized treatment plans. This study evaluated the effectiveness of an integrated system in facilitating remote diagnoses and treatment. Key metrics, such as appointment scheduling rates, video consultation success rates, and patient satisfaction scores, were collected and analyzed to assess the impact of the system.
