Health Minister Fahrettin Koja made statements about new developments in the health care system and the introduction of such a concept as telemedicine. Telemedicine is the dissemination of medical services and information through electronic information and telecommunication technologies.
Speaking about a special application, which will reduce the burden on hospitals, Kodja said: "22% of patients go to hospitals to print prescriptions and get all kinds of certificates and referrals. We plan to solve their problems through remote health care. Thus, it will be possible to get a prescription, certificate, referral, etc. online without coming to the hospital."
