Today, telemedicine is really gaining momentum. I myself wanted to get involved in developing applications in this field. I was lucky enough to find here https://www.softermii.com/blog/cost-of-telemedicine article just about it. Is it worth it and if so, where to start so that it would be cost-effective for me and make some sense. This is very important, so if you also want to do something similar in telemedicine, it is better to read here first.
