Abstract

The evolving domain of telemedicine relies heavily on robust Information
Systems (IS) to provide equitable healthcare access. This paper develops a
multidisciplinary framework combining clinical data management, communication
networks, data analytics, and patient engagement technologies for efficient remote
health service delivery. With reference to Pakistan’s healthcare landscape, the study
evaluates existing implementations and highlights key barriers such as infrastructure
deficits, digital literacy, and data privacy concerns. It also presents two data-driven
visuals to analyze adoption trends and infrastructure gaps. The findings advocate for
policy alignment and technology integration to enhance service coverage and
sustainability.
