Type: article
Abstract: The subject of the study is telemedicine technologies in the Far Eastern Federal District. The author examines aspects of the digital transformation of healthcare, in which telemedicine is becoming a key tool for providing accessible and high-quality medical care to residents of remote regions of Russia. This need is particularly acute in rural and hard-to-reach areas, where a shortage of qualified personnel and inpatient facilities creates significant barriers to timely access to necessary care. The development of digital infrastructure has reduced these barriers, making medical care accessible even in the most remote corners of the country, including the Far Eastern Federal District. The purpose of this study is to analyze the implementation of telemedicine services in the Far Eastern Federal District using the Primorsky Regional Children's Clinical Hospital No. 1 as an example. In this article, the author presents current statistics and research on telemedicine and its application in medical institutions. Research Methodology. General scientific methods were used in this study, including statistical analysis, data synthesis, tabular method, bibliographic method, and others. The study's materials include scientific papers in the field of telemedicine, as well as materials provided by the Primorsky Regional Children's Clinical Hospital No. 1 on the provision of telemedicine services. Based on data collected from official sources and an analysis of scientific papers by various authors, the conclusions presented in this article were formulated. The main findings of the study are as follows: the demand for telemedicine services has increased over the four years of their use, and therefore their implementation is necessary, especially in remote areas of the Russian Federation. The region's technological development creates a solid foundation for the development of telemedicine services in all regions of the Far Eastern Federal District. Furthermore, the ability to provide telemedicine services becomes an additional incentive for attracting and retaining medical personnel in the region. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that telemedicine is evolving from a technological tool into a strategic resource for the development of healthcare in the Far East, ensuring equal access to quality medical care regardless of a person's place of residence. Currently, the implementation of technology is a necessary step in adapting to the new conditions of the modern world, especially in industries that serve the health and safety of citizens.
