As telemedicine programs scale across low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), it is essential to rigorously evaluate their effectiveness, cost-efficiency, and impact on health systems and health outcomes. Policymakers and implementers alike need robust evidence to guide decisions on scaling, improving, or adapting these interventions. This webinar aims to unpack the current body of evidence on telemedicine in LMICs and explore appropriate methodologies for evaluation in diverse contexts.
Objectives
This webinar will explore practical strategies, marketing approaches, and behavior change interventions to drive demand and uptake of telemedicine among citizens.
Expected Outcomes
By the end of the webinar, participants will:
- Learn about common barriers and enablers of telemedicine adoption in LMICs.
- Discover proven strategies, marketing techniques, and communication approaches for increasing citizen engagement with telemedicine platforms.
- Understand the role of community health workers, patient education, and media in driving adoption.
