Abstract
Access to timely, quality healthcare is one of the important issues concerning communities in rural India, among many others such as education, safe drinking water, transport, approach roads, and electricity. Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has made a significant impact on the functioning of enterprises and urban communities; however, the benefits of ICT are yet to reach rural communities. This article describes how an innovative ICT tool called “mHEALTHPrimary Health Care” (mHEALTH-PHC) can be used to meet the primary healthcare requirements of the community. The MHEALTH-PHC tool was developed after studying the needs and the logistic problems related to primary healthcare of the rural tribal population of villages in India.
