You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.234.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:36, 2 January 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Virtual Hospital''' is an international [[non-government organization]] that operates as part of Virtual Healthcare Limited. Virtual Hospital uses [[telemedicine]] to deliver medical care to the developing world. 

==How Virtual Hospital Works==
Virtual Hospital interconnects villages in the developing world with their main county [[hospital]]s, and hospitals in the West using [[Telemedicine]]. Virtual Hospital is based on a traditional healthcare referral system, where the patient's medical information is collected by e-clinics in rural [[third world]] communities using a computer, or [[mobile phone]] and sent to a [[general practitioner|general medical practitioner]] (GP) based at the Virtual Hospital (Hub).  The GP at the Hub then either provides a diagnosis or refers the patient to the relevant Virtual Hospital Department where specialist consultants across the world are linked together through the Internet.

==Influence on Virtual Hospital==
The work of Virtual Hospital is influenced by reports published by the [[World Health Organization (WHO)]] on Telemedicine developments,<ref name="TELEMEDICINE in Member States">((cite report|last=Kay|first=Misha|author2=Santos, Takane |title=Telemedicine opportunities and developments in Member States|series=Global Observatory for eHealth series|year=2010|volume=2|publisher=[[WHO]]|url=http://www.virtualhospital.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/WHO-Telemedicine-Developments.pdf))</ref> American Telemedicine Association<ref>((cite journal|last=Grady|first=Bryan|title=PRACTICE GUIDELINES FOR VIDEOCONFERENCING-BASED TELEMENTAL HEALTH|journal=Practice Guidelines for Video Conferencing-based Telemental Health|date=October 2009|url=http://www.virtualhospital.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Telemedicine-guideline-report.pdf))</ref>  and the work of Zaidi, et al. and Denis Gilhooly Principal Adviser in the [[United Nations]].

Telemedicine uses [[Information and communications technology|ICTs]] to overcome geographical barriers and increase access to healthcare services. This is particularly beneficial for rural and underserved communities in developing countries - groups that traditionally suffer from lack of access to healthcare.'<ref>((cite conference|last=Gilhooly|first=Denis|title=Confronting the Diseases of Poverty: Creating a Digital He@lth Dynamic|year=2009|url=http://www.virtualhospital.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Creating-a-Digital-He@lth-Dynamic.pdf|location=Las Vegas, USA|conference=American Telemedicine Association Conference))</ref>
