GS PAPER II: Issues Relating to Development and Management of Social Sector/Services relating to Health, Education, Human Resources.

Context: Ex-Defence doctors will now provide online consultation on e-Sanjeevani OPD to all citizens of the country.

About e-Sanjeevani OPD:

  • The e-Sanjeevani OPD is a flagship telemedicine platform of the Government, developed by the Centre for Development of Advance Computing (C-DAC), Mohali under the aegis of Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW).
  • It provides free consultations to Indian citizens and is functioning extremely well.
  • However, due to the surge in COVID-19 cases, the demand for doctors is up while the supply has reduced as doctors are being pulled out for COVID ward duties.
  • This is where the defence veterans are stepping in to help.
