'Mobile Health' initiatives, particularly in developing countries, are transforming the way healthcare is delivered by improving the processes and expanding its reach and access to remote areas. By the end of 2011, there were 6 billion mobile phone subscriptions, says ITU (International Telecommunications Union) of the UN. While in 2012, developing countries accounted for 75% of the mobile subscriptions. Considering the expansion of consumer mobile use, its imperative to use the platform to create efficiencies in healthcare delivery systems (electronic health records, remote monitoring of patients, expert advice, diagnostics and treatment support etc) and as a tool to disseminate health information and knowledge (send and receive data on disease incidence, information system for public health emergencies, manage medicine supply chains, health worker training, interactive health messages to general public etc). In developing countries mobile health efforts include- care information for expectant mothers and new mothers and their infants to reduce child and maternal mortality; for efficient tracking and management of public health outbreaks; for managing supply chains in cases to cure for diseases with short onset times and for tracking counterfeit medicines; for effective communication among healthcare professionals for knowledge and training purposes. Most mobile health efforts are in their early stages and its future adoption depends on technological integration and interoperability, adequate standards and proper and sufficient funding to sustain the programs (in 2010, out of the total $20 billion healthcare funding only $30 million was for mobile health).
