The right of everyone to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health is recognized in article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The right to health also requires governing authorities to create a safe and supportive environment for members to participate in decisions affecting their health and acquire appropriate information. This is only possible when healthcare facilities, goods and services are available, accessible, acceptable and of good quality<\/strong>. Digital technologies play a crucial role in all these dimensions. Let\u2019s consider one by one-<\/p>\n

Availability<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Healthcare is said to be available when people living in the remotest areas can access the required services. In an \u201cAvailable\u201d healthcare, members can get answers to their clinical queries by in-person visits, emails, or secure messaging. Digital Technologies such as Telehealth, online access to patient portals, ability to send secured messages to healthcare providers and get responses, real time monitoring of patients by providers \u2013 all play a crucial role in making healthcare \u201cAvailable\u201d to anybody who needs it.<\/p>\n

Accessibility<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Healthcare needs to be accessible physically, economically, and informatively. Healthcare needs to be accessible to everybody, especially for people with disabilities and other groups who are hard to reach. This is physical accessibility. Telemedicine, mHealth and other healthcare services powered by digital technologies can be less expensive and can lower the direct and indirect costs of an in-person visit. This is economic accessibility. Digital technologies and apps enable users to access their real time health data and they are more engaged in the whole decision-making process. This is information accessibility.<\/p>\n

Acceptability <\/strong><\/p>\n

Healthcare facilities and services need to be designed in such a way that they can remove the barriers of language, culture, sexual orientation, and other forms of discrimination. In other words, they should \u201cAccept\u201d all members and all members should feel \u201cAccepted\u201d in these facilities. Digital Technologies again play a game-changing role here. Digital Apps can be designed to support multiple languages, are not restricted by geographical boundaries, and can be \u201cdesigned\u201d to meet all local needs.<\/p>\n

Of Good Quality<\/strong><\/p>\n

Digital Technologies especially advancements in AI and Machine learning have enabled companies to produce better treatment techniques, vaccines, drugs and has increased overall quality of healthcare. treatment plans, cures and after care can be much more personalized than ever before.
