Telemedicine in India requires more than a video link. You need informed consent, identity verification, prescription rules under Telemedicine Practice Guidelines, and documentation that stands up to medical council audits.

Must-have telemedicine features

  • In-app video stable on 4G networks
  • E-prescriptions with Indian drug database support
  • Consent capture before each consult
  • UPI and card payment integrated with billing
  • Follow-up scheduling linked to in-clinic EMR

OpdNest bundles telemedicine with OPD records so online and offline visits share one patient chart. Avoid standalone video tools that do not sync with your /emr-software-india — duplicate data entry kills adoption.

Compliance checklist

Document patient location, maintain recordings only with consent, and never prescribe Schedule X drugs on first teleconsult without in-person evaluation. Store records per state council and DPDP requirements.
