Annotation: The article is devoted to the study of the development of telemedicine in the BRICS countries, which account for more than 40% of the world’s population. Significant scientific and practical interest is associated with the global growth of digitalization of healthcare, with the proven effectiveness of remote medical care. Different socio-economic challenges, a variety of regulatory approaches, various technological innovations, the political significance and potential of international cooperation between the BRICS countries make it possible to identify the best medical practices and adapt them to the system. In international cooperation on healthcare develop- ment, BRICS acts as a platform for data exchange and joint projects, making it possible to reduce dependence on Western technologies. The article presents the main achievements, limitations, and prospects for using telemedicine consultations in five key BRICS countries. The study of telemedicine in the BRICS countries is relevant not only for these countries, but also for the entire community, as it allows comparing the effectiveness of different models in similar socio-economic conditions, identifies universal solutions for emerging markets, and promotes the sustainable development of medicine.
