Tele-health Consultations The live tele-health consultation service for the marginalized communities of Skardu was resumed in March 2010, after a temporary halt due to inevitable technical issues. Around 250 tele-health consultations were carried out during the year in the field of Dermatology, bringing the total number of people benefited from this activity to around 4,000. With an aim to ensure the regular and high quality tele-health services, COMSATS also signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Jabir Bin Hyan Trust, the patron organization of Abdullah Hospital, located in Skardu City, where the Telehealth Centre of COMSATS is established.
