Abstract— Healthcare delivery is becoming a big challengefor the increasing population in the world. This is even abigger challenge for the developing and under developedcountries due to scarce resources. Taking the case of India,where majority population lives in rural areas and farfurlong regions like Andaman and Nikobar Islands oreastern parts of the country, getting desired level of medicalfacilities has become dream for the citizens of these areas.This inadequate healthcare delivery system is facingconstraints due to increased number of patients, which isreflecting as long waiting queue, shortage of hospital bedsand inadequate intensive care/emergency units. The existinghealthcare delivery model, if supported by the modernwireless and web technologies can give solutions to some ofthe problems and this in turn can make appropriatehealthcare feasible for more number of people without theirrelocation. With the use of information and communicationtechnologies in healthcare many terms like Telemedicine,eHealth and mHealth are frequently used.
