Summary
- Jukkal to receive telemedicine kiosks for remote consultations.
- Kiosks connect patients to CMC Vellore specialists via tech.
- Initiative aims to improve healthcare access for rural populations.

In Telangana's Jukkal constituency, a remote area severely lacking in medical facilities, a visionary MLA is bridging the healthcare divide through technology. He has partnered with CMC Vellore to establish telemedicine kiosks, bringing specialist medical consultations closer to residents who previously faced hours of travel for care.
These technologically equipped kiosks will provide secure tele-consultations, enabling patients to connect with qualified doctors and specialists. The initiative also focuses on chronic disease management and preventive healthcare, significantly reducing the burden of traveling to distant hospitals for basic and advanced medical needs.
This project aims to revolutionize healthcare access for Jukkal's rural, tribal, and economically disadvantaged populations. By integrating with national digital health missions and leveraging existing schemes, it promises to reduce health complications and improve maternal and child health outcomes, serving as a potential model for rural healthcare nationwide.
