Abstract

The chapter proposes a Net collaborating system to establish a query-based disease rectification solution system for needy patients. Today, many developing countries are focusing on providing better rural healthcare. But the distance between rural areas and the hospitals has been a major issue in bringing better healthcare to rural masses. In this context, if usage of technology and Internet can create an interim system to identify urgency of situations and alert healthcare providers, better healthcare can reach the needy at the right time, thus reducing fatality and also outbreak of contagious diseases. A Net collaborating system establishes the urgency of a requirement by getting information through queries and routes the queries to the appropriate solution system. Connecting patients with appropriate healthcare experts will be done by mapping expertise and type of disease, thus reducing waiting time.
