Herbal medicine has been an age long tradition for the treatment and curing of diseases globally. Previous studies on telediagnostic and prescription of orthodox medicine have been examined using the application of modern technology device to improve health care services. In spite of this, there is yet an exhaustive study on the integration of technological framework for telediagnosis and prescription in herbal medicine. Therefore, this research focused on development of collaborative teleconsultation and telediagnosis in sharing of information on herbal medication for patients in remote areas to improve healthcare delivery. WAVA based collaborative framework was designed for telediagnosis and prescription in herbal medicine, it has multimedia features for videoconferencing, and ability to record, capture and replay consultations with the capacity for edit, data compression and short messages (sms) between the teleconsultants. The framework study the propagation time, link media delay, packet loss, processing delay between all (tele-herbal consultant 1, 2, 3…n) connected to the system. Each herbal tele-consultant was aloted with peer IP address in order to join the telediagnosis videoconference from their remote areas. The framework displays paradigms for data acquisition on herbal medications, video-recording, and imagery of patients. The integration of this collaborative framework enhanced telediagnosis of patients with better prescriptions on effective herbal drugs for speedy recovery.
