A Guideline for Using Knowledge Management in Telemedicine Systems Dedicated for Diabetes Patients in Saudi Arabia

The research of Knowledge Management (KM) has grown rapidly in health care sector recently. This research combines Knowledge Management and Telemedicine. It focuses on how Knowledge Management can be used for enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of telemedicine. A concentration has been made especially on diabetes patients in Saudi Arabia. As a result, this study sets the guidelines of using Knowledge Management in Telemedicine Systems Dedicated for Diabetes Patients in Saudi Arabia.
