Mobile Health Around the Globe: Bringing Telemedicine to Remote Areas in Latin America

From Aug. 21-25, GlobalMed joined local reseller Redsicom in an effort to provide much-needed healthcare to low-income Colombians living in a remote area of the country. GlobalMed participated in a Healthcare Brigade, organized by the San Jose Hospital and the Fundación Universitaria Ciencias de la Salud (FUCS) from Bogotá.
