Introduction to e-Health project

Most of the sectors in Sri Lanka are becoming automated using Information and Communication technologies. Although health sector is one of most prominent sector in Sri Lanka, it is not yet exposed to e-world. The purpose of this project brings the health section to e-world. e-Health is a distributed system which will converge all the health related units which are divergent in various sectors and manage all the information system of health care. Also it cooperates with health care providers and with other institutions involved in health care provision.
In contrast to traditional health care systems, e-health will be developed to become a niche industry with the potential of providing, in one way or another, greater access to a growing range of health care products and services according to the global standard.
