The article highlights how fragmented referrals, limited frontline support systems, and delayed specialist access continue to impact healthcare delivery, particularly across rural and remote regions. It further examines how AI-enabled clinical systems, connected PHCs, and integrated healthcare infrastructure can strengthen early diagnosis, improve coordination, and reduce healthcare inequity.
