Potential/preparedness of e-health services in Zimbabwe

Zimbabwean health sector is struggling mainly due to the economic climate prevailing in the country. There is shortage of qualified personnel, medicines and equipment. The distribution of the few resources available is also skewed. This is happening at a time when E-health technology is gaining momentum in southern Africa but hasn't set a foothold in Zimbabwe. I explore the condition prevailing in the country with regards to implementation of a successful national E-health system that can alleviate some problems in the health sector.
