Summary/Abstract: The accelerated development of information and communication technologies in recent decades has led to the creation of a number of new means to improve the process of providing medical assistance and health care. One of these tools is undoubtedly telemedicine, which is increasingly being used in most medical fields, such as surgery, cardiology, dermatology, mental health, rehabilitation and other fields. As the main prerequisites for the rapid entry of telemedicine into healthcare, the shortage of doctors and medical specialists, combined with the aging of the population throughout Europe, the ever-increasing general costs of healthcare, imperfections in the healthcare infrastructure such as the lack of medical and healthcare facilities can be indicated. In order to successfully overcome the indicated shortcomings in the health systems, it is necessary to effectively use modern innovative technologies. In this sense, telemedicine plays an important role in the positive development of the health sector. It brings a number of benefits to the whole society and especially to the patients, but at the same time a number of challenges arise, which should find a solution in order to guarantee the basic rights of the patients.
