AIIMS to launch tele-medicine facility for non-Covid19 patients
With Out-Patient Department and other medical facilities halted at Delhi’s All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) as part of measures to contain Covid-19 spread, the institute will launch a tele-consultation facility for its non-Covid19 patients.

“Our follow-up patients can consult doctors through phone. Chronic patients can consult doctors through this facility,” Dr. Randeep Guleria, director, AIIMS, said.

He said every department will have doctors who will resolve health-related issues of patients and added that AIIMS has also developed a plan for hospital in-patient care service amid the coronavirus scare.
