Abstract : India, with a population exceeding 1.2 billion, stands as the world's second most populous country [1]. The World Health Organization suggests a doctor-to-population ratio of 1:1000 for India, but the existing ratio is merely 0.62:1000 [2]. This situation becomes more concerning during the pandemic, making telemedicine services a viable means of reaching patients in need, especially in certain regions of the country.
