Hurdles For Indian Teleradiology

1 Mins read

Even after having multiple advantages for teleradiology and telemedicine, the reality is that India is witnessing slow growth. Some of the major hurdles in this process are

  • Multiple radiologists who visit the US do not return to India for practice. This happens due to differences in lifestyle and salaries. This results in a handful of certified radiologists to work, which is a HR crisis.
  • Many people in the west still consider India as a third-world country. This perception results in less work for the radiologists, thereby low input in teleradiology. This perfection needs to be worked upon.
  • Certain political concerns pertaining to government rules and media about the outsourcing impact the work we get. The teleradiology service outsourcing compared to popular belief is quite low.
  • The main markets for teleradiology are Singapore,US and UK. People looking to outsource services look for a cost difference in economical aspects and similar language speaking people. To become a hub for radiology outsourcing, the country needs to work twice hard.
