We have started telemedicine center for improving rural healthcare with fully digital medical equipment and telemedicine EHR salutation. We are established a full-fledged flesh Department of Telemedicine and Health Informatics. Simultaneously, we started e-Library for medical students. In future, we are going to start a PBX in my hospital for direct interaction with rural patient and doctor without telemedicine room.

In future, we are going to adopt EHR, PACS, mHealth, and web based services for making digital patient data. In the future, I wish to make a fully paperless hospital.
