Organization of medical care delivery using telemedicine technologies: Regulatory legal framework in the Russian Federation

Telemedicine technologies (TMT) represent a digital tool within the organization of medical care aimed at increasing its accessibility as well as improving the quality of medical services provided through consultations and medical councils involving third-level organizations, including national medical research centers. A content analysis was conducted of regulatory legal acts, focusing on the application of TMT in various organizational models of medical care delivery. The authors systematized information on regulatory legal frameworks for organizing medical care using TMT, outlined organizational options for interaction among healthcare professionals, as well as within the framework of remote monitoring of patient health. The concept of an experimental legal regime in the field of digital innovations related to medical activities, including the use of TMT and technologies for collecting and processing information about patients health status and diagnoses, was analyzed. An analysis was conducted of the regulatory framework for a pilot project on remote monitoring of patient health using the information system (platform) “Personal Medical Assistants”.
