Abstract
Access to quality healthcare is a right of every individual, however, a large part of rural population in India do not have access to same. This is particularly acute among the tribal community who are a marginalized section of the society. This paper is based on the case study of one such community in Wayanad district of Kerala. A tele-consulting system through rural health centre is proposed in this paper. The field implementation of this system is currently underway at Chekadi tribal mission in Wayanad.
