Introduction
• Networking of medical colleges can bridge distance
between Student & Teacher
• Quality of Postgraduate education in Indian Medical
colleges needs improvement
• Tertiary academic medical centers can provide
additional inputs through networking
3
Objectives 1
• Improving quality of medical / paramedical education
and meeting the educational needs of the students
despite paucity of teachers
• Facilitating cognitive component of learning by
providing interactive teaching material online
developed by a group of competent teachers at
undergraduate, postgraduate and super-specialty levels
• To promote psychomotor skill development through
tele-mentoring4
Objectives 2
• To link Medical Libraries with adequate stock of books and
journals for access to all thereby reducing state expenditure on
medical college libraries (Digital Library Network)
• To promote medical research by providing infrastructure for
quick exchange of ideas and co-ordination with group of
researchers involved in collaborative multicentre studies and
facilitating current information access through digital library
network
• Online Continuing Medical Education (e CME) to enhance
knowledge and teaching skill and possible Accreditation of
Medical Teachers and Health Care Professionals
5
Objectives 3
• Implementing uniform examination pattern and evaluation.
Coaching students with online and offline in MCQs
• Enhancing computer literacy among medical students and teachers
• Facilitating eHealth Governance
• Sharing of resources and establishing effective communication
between the medical colleges and its faculty
• Providing educational material & tools to medical teachers
• Improving quality and reducing the cost of health care delivery by
tele-consultation and tele-follow up
6
• Identification of a National Telemedicine Resource Center which
will be connected with high speed fiber network with few
selected apex medical institutions which in turn will be
networked with medical colleges in the region
• Identification of few apex medical academic institutions region
wise (Regional Telemedicine Resource Center) and networking
each with medical colleges in the region covering few states.
• MPLS-VPN Network backbone to provide bandwidth 10 Mbps to
start with (ultimately 1G) at Regional & 2 Mbps at medical
college telemedicine nodes.
• Each medical college telemedicine node to be linked with district
hospitals in their perimeter.
Road Map 1

Road Map 2
• One lecture theatre of each medical college will be
converted to digital integrated medical lecture theater
providing necessary infra structure.
• Each resource center will have facility for multimedia
education content development.
• All the medical education knowledge content will be
stored in the central repository located at the data
center of national resource center with a backup
facility at disaster site.
8
Expected Outcome 1
• The network will support multimedia data
exchange, multi-point video conference, both in
interactive and video broadcast mode.
• Central Repository of Medical Education
Content will do live transmission of the content
on day to day basis.
9
Expected Outcome 2
• Entire network will provide a platform for interactive
distance learning and adaptive environment for
medical students, teachers and health care
professionals.
• It will also support digital library network.
• Ultimately Virtual Medical University can be
established at National Level.
