Özet:

 Telemedicine applications, which mean that medical interventions are carried out through information and communication technologies ICT, provide health services as opportunity across long distances. Telemedicine allows providing health services to people, especially during extraordinary periods such as war, disaster and pandemic, despite the difficult conditions created by these periods. However, as a result of the development of technology, the application area of telemedicine is increasing not only in these difficult times but also in our daily lives. Especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, it has become clear that telemedicine is not a luxury but a necessity. Telehealth, on the other hand, is a more inclusive term than telemedicine and can be briefly explained as the provision of services related to diagnosing and treating patients, physician training, patient education, administrative functions, video conferencing and continuing medical education through telecommunication technologies. In this study, an examination was carried out on the telemedicine applications that started to be implemented with the pandemic in our country and the Regulation on the Provision of Remote Health Services regarding telemedicine, which has found such a wide regulatory area legally for the first time. At the same time, this study includes telemedicine applications that are currently implemented and can be implemented by the administration. Finally, in this study, the responsibility of the administration arising from telemedicine services and the solutions to the controversial issues arising from the provision of these services are mentioned. Solutions to licensing and procedural administrative obstacles, which are among the biggest obstacles encountered in telemedicine applications, can only be found through administrative activities. So that, pilot practices of the administration are important in the development of telemedicine, which can be applied in almost every field today. For these reasons, our study focused on the administrations telemedicine practices. In addition, our study includes examples from around the world regarding telemedicine regulations that can be applied by the administration. As a result, in a period when the workload of physicians and violence against physicians increases, it is very important for the administration to make more regulations regarding solutions.

 Tıbbi müdahalelerin bilgi ve iletişim teknolojileri BİT aracılığıyla yürütülmesi anlamına gelen teletıp uygulamaları, mesafeler arası sağlık hizmeti sunma imkânı sağlamaktadır. Teletıp; özellikle savaş, afet ve pandemi gibi olağanüstü dönemlerde bu dönemlerin yarattığı zorlu koşullara rağmen insanlara sağlık hizmeti sunulmasına imkân sağlamaktadır. Ancak teknolojinin gelişmesiyle beraber teletıbbın uygulama alanı, sadece bu zorlu dönemlerde değil günlük hayatımızda da artmaktadır. Özellikle Covid-19 pandemisinde teletıbbın bir lüks değil ihtiyaç olduğu açıkça görülmüştür. Telesağlık ise teletıbba göre daha kapsayıcı bir terim olmakla beraber kısaca; telekomünikasyon teknolojileri aracılığıyla hastalara teşhis koymaya ve tedavi etmeye, hekim eğitimine, hasta eğitimine, idari işlevlere, video konferansa ve sürekli tıp eğitimine ilişkin hizmetlerin sunumu olarak açıklanabilecektir. Çalışmamızda, ülkemizde pandemiyle beraber uygulanmaya başlanan teletıp uygulamalarını inceledik. Bu inceleme yapılırken teletıbbın yasal olarak ilk defa bu kadar geniş düzenlendiği Uzaktan Sağlık Hizmetlerinin Sunumu Hakkında Yönetmelik ele alınmıştır. Aynı zamanda bu çalışmada, idare tarafından halihazırda uygulanmakta olan ve uygulanabilecek teletıp uygulamalarına yer verilmiştir. Son olarak ise idarenin teletıp hizmetlerinden doğan sorumluluğundan ve bu hizmetlerin sunumundan doğan tartışma konularına ilişkin çözüm yollarından bahsedilmiştir. Teletıp uygulamalarında karşılaşılan en büyük engellerden olan lisanslamaya ve prosedüre ilişkin idari engellere yine ancak idari faaliyetlerle çözüm getirilebilecektir. Bu açıdan günümüzde hemen hemen her alanda uygulama imkânı olan teletıbbın gelişiminde, idarenin pilot uygulamaları önem arz etmektedir. Bu nedenlerle çalışmamızda idarenin teletıp uygulamaları üzerinde durulmuş ve idarenin hayata geçirebileceği teletıp düzenlemelerine dünyadan örneklerle yer verilmiştir. Hekimlerin iş yükünün ve hekimlere yönelik şiddetin arttığı bir dönemde çözüm yollarına ilişkin idare tarafından daha fazla düzenleme yapılması oldukça önem arz etmektedir.
