CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Bhopal – Jagdish Rajesh, Deputy Director General (Administration) of the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), visited the Bhopal Memorial Hospital and Research Centre (BMCHRC). During his visit, he first inaugurated the newly launched e-Sanjeevani Teleconsultation Center at BMCHRC.
Following this, he also inaugurated an Orientation Program being conducted in the BMCHRC auditorium for newly appointed technical staff of ICMR. Lastly, he launched a Hindi typing training program for BMCHRC’s Hindi-speaking staff, organized with the support of the Department of Official Language, Government of India.
e-Sanjeevani Teleconsultation Center Launched
Dr. Manisha Srivastava, Director-In-Charge of BMCHRC, explained that the new e-Sanjeevani Consultation Center has been initiated with support from the National Health Mission (NHM). Through this facility, doctors posted at Primary Health Centers (PHCs) in Damoh, Singrauli, and Mandla districts can now directly consult BMCHRC’s medical specialists regarding patient treatment via telemedicine.
These specialists are from departments such as General Medicine, Gynecology, Gastro Medicine, and Critical Care. The e-Sanjeevani platform, developed by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and the National Health Mission, is one of India’s premier telemedicine services. With its launch at BMCHRC, patients in rural areas of these districts will no longer need to travel to district headquarters or the capital for treatment, bringing significant relief.
