Smart healthcare is gradually yet surely changing the way health services are delivered in India. From smart and connected Internet of Things (IoT) devices, sensing technology and real-time data analytics to mobile apps connecting patients with doctors and test laboratories, technology is propelling the countrys healthcare industry into the future. Innovations like telemedicine and teleradiology, too, have emerged as potent tools to deliver healthcare services in the countrys remote areas that lack human resources. The cover story of eHEALTHs August issue, Smart Healthcare: A Game Changer, focuses on the role being played by smart technologies in transforming the Indian healthcare sector with useful insights offered by captains of the health industry

The interviews present the perspective of the policy makers on digitalisation, e-medical records, IoT, among other ideas that are projected to change the delivery of health services in the future, even as the government continues its efforts to transform rural healthcare in the country through various schemes and initiatives.
