Consequently, it became possible to practice telemedicine, including distance medical examination and treatment, counseling, and education. The updated networksystems using ISDN, optical lines, microwaves and multi-channel satellite can be utilized for a video-conferencing system to support an effective telemedicine. In order to establish and execute national information policies effectively, it is requiredthat the laws, regulations, and the organizations related to broadcasting and communication matters need to be modified.The purpose of this paper is to suggest a model of a medical web- casting system with high cost-effectiveness.
