In most of the third world countries doctor to patient ratio is very low than the required standards set by World Health Organization (WHO).

The main challenges which are common in most of developing countries are as following:

• Lack of medical facilities, infrastructure & specialist doctor at remote locations and villages. Since most of medical facilities are available in urban areas, specialty and super-specialty doctors are also located in urban areas.
• Transportation – This is additional cost to patients who require diagnosis or treatment. Many death cases due to delay in diagnosis or in transportation time.
• Lack of Diagnostic Centers – Till now most of local doctors refer to meet specialist in person. In practical remote diagnostic centers are not operative in state, which can connect to super specialists in existing infrastructure not only save time, money and energy of patient but also provide them lifesaving consultation.
• Domestic Resources – Many developing countries have unstable electric supplies, communication networks, and internet connections outside of urban areas, which makes it difficult to transmit data for the purpose of telemedicine consultations and treatment.

Current need of Developing countries and other developing countries is to avail these medical facilities and consultation through an efficient system which can be helpful in improving health of their citizens. Telemedicine is the best suitable platform for delivering the actual need by these countries.
