Telemedicine: Remote healthcare services that allow patients to receive care without visiting a clinic. Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS): Data-driven tools that help clinicians make decisions about patient care. Health Information Exchange (HIE): Secure systems that allow healthcare providers to share medical data Public Health Informatics: The use of IT to track public health trends, prevent disease, and educate the public Wearable Devices: Health monitoring devices that track a patient's health data Genomics: The use of genetic data to personalize treatment plans Mobile Health Apps: Health services that can be accessed on mobile devices Indian Standards for Health Informatics Electronic Health Record - IS/ISO/TR 20514 : 2005 Describes a pragmatic classification of electronic health records, provides simple definitions for the main categories of EHR and provides supporting descriptions of the characteristics of electronic health records and record systems. Point-of-Care Medical Device Communication - IS/ISO/IEEE 11073-10201 : 2020 Defines a general object-oriented information model that may be used to structure information and identify services used in point-of-care (POC) medical device communications. Genomic Sequence Variation Markup Language (GSVML) - IS 17887 : 2022/ ISO 25720 : 2009 Applicable to the data exchange format that is designed to facilitate the exchange of the genomic sequence variation data around the world, without forcing change of any database schema. Tele Health Current Standards Landscape Existing Limitations TeleHealth Tele medicine Virtual Care Telehealth standards is need of hour and highly critical for ensuing quality, and safety as we are observing advancing remote healthcare accessibility to mass population in India through various initiatives taken by Governments and NGOs, etc. Ministry of Electronics and IT (MeitY), Government of India had released the “Recommended Guidelines & Standards for Practice of Telemedicine in India” which gave a comprehensive set of recommendations to operate
