5. Telehealth

While getting the right information to the right people can make a difference, sometimes information alone is not enough. That is why doctors have been trying to practice remote medicine, also known as telehealth, for years. Telehealth can allow everything from virtual consultation and diagnosis, to surgeons performing via robot from across the country.

Even in the developed world, rural and remote areas can suffer from limited access to cutting-edge care. In less-developed regions and countries, the lack of health infrastructure can be similarly deadly, even when cures and treatments exist that could save lives. Telehealth, through the world-wide web, can finally provide a solution.
