For better health we have to rely on better health care services. mHealth is a modern era health care services provided to the patients through mobile devices like mobiles, smart phones, tablets etc. In fact m stands for mobile. The aim of mHealth is to provide better and in time health services to the patients from a remote place. It has already received a fabulous response in developed countries in past few years and experts believe that it will get similar response in developing countries like India, China etc in recent future. Let us discuss some of the important aspect of mHealth for the users.

For educating people for their health: In developing country like India the major part of the population live in villages where there is very less scope to educate people for different diseases and health tips. As a result, due to unawareness, people live like blind and socially illiterate in remote places. With mHealth service we can educate them through different health tips in the form of SMS service to their mobile. We can make them aware of new diseases, threads and epidemics in advance so that they can take preventive measures for their health.

Training for healthcare professionals from a remote place: Though India a country of 1.3 billion populations, still there is an unbelievable number of health care service providers or professionals in the country. The ratio between the health care professional to that of patients is extremely low. To add this they are neither up to date nor highly qualified. As a result the health care service is becoming terrific with time. To avoid this, mHealth can be used to train the health care professionals with modern approach to make them more efficient than before. It can be done from any remote place on the globe and from qualified and expert professionals. This will definitely improve the quality of service to the patients in indirect way.

Reaching at everyone: Mobiles are now with every hands in India irrespective of geographic changes. To get the maximum advantage of this situation we must ensure that the mHealth service is reaching to each and every corner of the country. This will definitely help poor peoples to avail better health care service through mHealth technology.

Providing better patient service: Through mHealth we can perform different operations like collecting patient information, taking an appointment for a doctor, providing tele medicines etc. This will definitely improve the quality of health care service in the country. On the other hand patient will get immediate service from a remote place that can save a life. Moreover doctors can monitor their patients from a remote place and hence able to provide better and advanced service to them.

Emergency assistance: Emergency situations like epidemic, outbreak or accidental case, mHealth can help you in a superfast way so that you may think as if it is a blessing from god. So if we say mHealth is a virtual version of messenger of god, it will not be an over statement.
