The government of Peru promised that half of the health establishments in the country will have interconnectivity for the development of telehealth care.
The Peruvian government's plan is to interconnect the 50% of medical establishments in the country, to massively extend telehealth services in regions that are geographically remote from large cities.
Likewise, the president of Peru, Pedro Castillo, explained before the Congress of the Republic, the plan for the implementation of the digital clinical history in 90 establishments that belong to the Ministry of Health (Minsa) and regional governments. This strategy also involves the Social Security of Health (EsSalud).
In this sense, the government of Peru will promote the National Network of Digital Citizenship Center, a comprehensive digitization plan in collaboration with public and private entities. This strategy includes telemedicine services, digital education, among others.
It should be noted that the Minsa has the National Telemedicine Network that connects nearly 3,000 medical establishments throughout the country. This network facilitates the execution of remote consultations with specialists, from remote areas.
