发展中国家的土著人民严重缺乏保健支助，包括缺乏保健专业人员和技术。土著人民在患慢性病时往往难以到医院就诊。在孟加拉国，有54个土著社区群体，估计有300万人。有300名政府注册的医生和护士以及800名社区保健工作者为大约300万人提供保健服务。由于信息技术的发明，近年来医疗保健服务已经现代化，并且更容易获得。信息技术使保健服务触手可及。近年来，土著社区中有大量的人在智能手机上使用互联网。由于土著社区没有足够的保健组织和专业医生，因此，向人民提供基于移动电话的服务将是有用和兼容的。基于移动电话的保健服务在缩小“数字鸿沟”方面具有巨大潜力，并且是支持土著社区特别是受慢性病影响的人呆在家里的重要工具。本文旨在开发、实施和评估一个基于移动的家庭或社区护理和农村卫生中心患者监测和健康管理的综合框架。
Indigenous people of developing countries have serious shortage of health support including lack of health professionals and technology. It is often difficult for the indigenous people to receive consultation in the hospitals when they face any chronic disease.

In recent years, there is large number of people in the indigenous community uses internet in their smart phones. As, there is not enough health care organizations and professional doctors in the indigenous community, for this reason, it will be useful and compatible to provide mobile phone-based services to the people. Mobile phone-based health services have great potentiality in reducing ‘digital divide’, and acts as a crucial tool for supporting indigenous community especially chronic disease affected people staying at home. This paper aims to develop, implement and evaluate a mobile based integrated framework for in-home or community care and rural health centers’ patient monitoring and health management.
