Peruvian Army renews its telehealth services with the help of the Ministry of Health

The Peruvian Ministry of Health (Minsa) collaborated with the Peruvian Army (EP) to strengthen the capacity of its telemedicine services.

The EP seeks to implement new telehealth services, for which they collaborated with various agencies of the General Directorate of Telehealth, Reference and Emergencies of the Minsa, such as Infosalud.

Similarly, the EP received advice from the Telehealth Unit of the National Institute of Children's Health (INSN) and the National Telehealth Center of EsSalud. They received training on the regulations of telehealth processes and remote consultations, as well as training on the provision of remote services.

A total of 15 doctors and health professionals from the army received a series of trainings to implement telemedicine in the Health Service Provider Institutions (IPRESS), managed by the EP. The objective of this strategy is to increase the coverage of specialized and sub-specialized services.

Another of the purposes of the development of telehealth services in the EP is that more of its IPRESS join the National Telehealth Network (RNT). Since 2017, the RNT has added more than 2,600 IPRESS, of which 32 belong to the EP.

Colonel EP, Enrique Puente, highlighted the importance of telemedicine to bring medical attention to the population of the most remote areas within the country. For her part, the executive director of Telemedicine, Berenice Rodríguez, explained that the health sector aims to unify the health system, and provide medical care to the population with lower economic resources.
