President’s Message!
Dear Esteemed members,
It is indeed a great honour to be the President of the Telemedicine Society of India (TSI) Maharashtra Chapter for the year 2024.
We all have witnessed revolution in technology in last few years. With advances in data science, machine learning and artificial intelligence, medical practice is going to change drastically in years to come
India is a vast nation with more than 70% population in rural area. Access to speciality medical care in remote places is a major challenge for our healthcare system. Telemedicine can help patients from remote places by providing super speciality care at their door step.
There is less awareness about telemedicine among medical professionals and it is less used by them.
This year we have planned to increase awareness about telemedicine. We will have membership drive to increase number of members in our association.
Continuing Medical Education is backbone for updating our knowledge and upgrading our skills. We have planned series of webinars in different specialities of medicine this year.
We will have interactive sessions with industry to get updates about latest equipment and tools developed by them.
Dear friends, please feel free to contact me or team members to give your valuable inputs and suggestions.
I would like to thank all of you for giving me opportunity to serve this august organisation.
Yours sincerely,
Dr Santosh Bhide
MBBS, MS, DNB, FAICO
