Abstract: Most developing countries are generally characterized by some problems such as limited resources and professional isolation in the health area. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is supposed to give solutions through the use of e-Healthcare technologies. Information and communication technologies are valuable tools used to establish and maintain connections within and between healthcare providers, and between healthcare providers and Patients. Telehomecare evolves constantly. It can aid disabled persons, increase patient compliance, enhance caregivers' effectiveness, and connect socially isolated individuals to their care providers. Various research works have investigated different aspects of ICT in the context of telehomecare in some developed and developing countries. This paper describes an architectural framework for the development of telehomecare in Algeria for diabetes measurement and remote monitoring.
