The Mexican state expanded its Digital Health projects with the appearance of telemedicine within Durango.
The goal is to reach all remote areas that do not have sufficient conditions to travel and pay for medical care in hospitals.
This type of public policies benefits in equipment the communities that do not have equal access to public health systems, through brigades, you can contact all Digital Health projects aimed at providing distance services with the best quality and accuracy possible.
The renewal of these public health services and systems encompasses a wide scale of treatments and prevention towards any condition or difficulty. The secretary of health, Sergio González Romero, said that “the ideal of medicine is to bring services and programs closer to the application of technology, because only in Durango we have 25,000 communities under 250 inhabitants where it is impossible to bring a hospital or health center, but we approach services through brigades and telemedicine ”
To achieve this objective, the Mexican government will support public health institutions to carry out intervention programs towards the selected areas and bring brigades or mobile units that can offer a free sample of the new technology.
