According to a statement issued by the company, 5G can deliver high-quality healthcare to rural and remote areas by turning it into smart healthcare solutions.

It has a simple design and can wirelessly connect to a suite of medical devices over 5G. Healthcare workers with the help of specialist doctors can diagnose and treat patients in even the most remote locations of Assam, he said.
Sarma said that the state government is fully committed to aiding the speedy roll-out of 5G services in Assam.

Apart from the existing investment of Rs 9,500 crores, Jio has additionally invested over Rs 2500 crores for work in progress to deploy the 5G network across Assam.
By December this year, Jio True 5G services would be made available in every town and taluka of Assam, the company statement said.
