Breaking Barriers: Telemedics Club Brings Healthcare to Rural Thailand
Sukree Sothipunchai, Published on 21/10/2024
» Thailand’s public healthcare system faces a unique paradox—it’s available to everyone, but for many, it remains inaccessible. Patients in public hospitals often wait over an hour and a half for basic medical consultations, even for minor ailments. The problem intensifies in rural areas, where healthcare facilities are sparse, and travel to the nearest hospital can take hours. In response to this critical issue, the Telemedics Club, led by 17-year-old Ty Nilvichean and Kamisra Mahavanidvong, has collaborated with Clicknic, a telemedicine company, to address the gap in healthcare access. Together, they’ve launched a bi-weekly initiative that provides free healthcare consultations and medication to underserved communities.
