Abstract : In India, there is a substantial gap between urban and rural populations, and a significant portion of the country's people in rural areas lacks access to essential healthcare services. The scarcity of healthcare professionals in rural regions is a significant reason prompting the government and healthcare organizations to leverage technology and innovation to address the needs of the underserved. Only 15% of the overall healthcare resources available to the Indian population are utilized by the rural populace.
