A Medico-Socio-Economic Analysis of TeleEKG in Ivory Coast

“…This confirms what previous authors have suggested and supports the hypothesis that telemedicine can improve patient access to quality care. [12][13][14][15][16][17][18]21 Using teleEKGs increased the revenue of the different pilot centers; these hospitals received one-third of the revenue over the first 3 years. Nevertheless, there was a theoretical economic shortfall for the referral centers because the number of patients using these centers was reduced.…”

“…The 6,045 teleEKGs conducted over the study period at sites that did not perform EKGs before the study confirms an existing but latent demand, and tele-expertise addresses two health issues in sub-Saharan Africa by facilitating access to quality care at a lower cost, even in areas known as ''medical deserts.'' 8,9,13,18 In addition, as suggested by Kamsu-Foguem et al, 10 telemedicine could also bring together modern medicine and traditional African medicine, which is often the first resort in sub-Saharan Africa. Further investigation of this idea would be of particular interest in our context, since many of the patients in our study came from rural areas.…”

“…The analysis performed in our study demonstrates that telemedicine is as good as, if not better than, traditional care practices and is performed at a lower cost. [12][13][14][15][16][17][18] The aim of this study, therefore, was to conduct a medicosocio-economic analysis of the impact of implementing a teleEKG network in Ivory Coast, by assessing the medical service provided to the patients, the geographic and economic accessibility of the service, and the economic implications for the hospitals and management units involved.…”

“…It is in this sense that Togo has designed this system which has permitted to consult patients at a distance through tele-radiology, teleechography and tele-endoscopy between expert sites and isolated sites that is to say the regional hospital CHR Tsevie in Togo, the university hospitals CHU campus of Lome and Trousseau of Tours in France. Thus, thanks to a high-speed connection and remote control software, tele-echography, teleradiology and tele-endoscopy sessions were carried out successfully [11]. As in the case of Togo, South Africa is also considered a pioneer in e-Health through the use of mHealth in Africa.…”

Systemic modeling in telemedicine

“…Telemedicine activities are effective (in terms of being cost-effective and increasing population reach) medical practices, which are promising for and the organization of healthcare in various medical domains (pediatrics, geriatrics, cardiology, diabetology, etc.) with some and advances in urban and rural healthcare delivery around the world [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. There is concern about the appropriateness of methodologies for assessments of telemedicine [17] in general and particularly, the measurement of patient satisfaction with telemedicine [18].…”
