Last month I got the opportunity to address a virtual gathering of Family Physicians, and share my predictions for the coming decade!
I believe that Family Physicians will be trusted and valued much more, as we continue to provide humane, personalised care, using appropriate technology and the Art of Medicine!
A Registered Medical Practitioner is entitled to provide telemedicine consultation to patients from any part of India
The RMPs should exercise their professional judgment to decide whether a telemedicine consultation is appropriate in a given situation or an in-person consultation is needed in the interest of the patient.
The RMP shall uphold the same standard of care as in an in-person consultation but within the intrinsic limits of telemedicine.
Here’s Some Unsolicited Advice from a Docpreneur..
1. For a fresh MBBS graduate, the best option is to become a Family Physician and start your own clinic. The pendulum is swinging from specialists and corporate hospitals to primary care and small clinics. A lot of doctors started their practices right after MBBS, and are doing phenomenally great!

“Doctor, can you come quickly, my mother is unwell!”
Even after doing thousands of home visits, I dread phone calls like these. If it’s an actual emergency, I can hardly help with the meagre tools I have in my bag, and the family had better call the ambulance and rush the patient to the hospital without waiting for me. On the other hand, there are genuine conditions in which a home visit by a doctor can help much more than transporting an unresponsive elderly to the unfamiliar environs of a hospital ICU. It’s quite tough to decide on the phone, which is which.
Lord, may I never be Confident! Because in my confidence I may lose sight of all the various Subtle signs and symptoms You have hidden for me Refuting the clear-cut diagnosis.
