The Modern era of Information-technology based approach for Personalised Patient Care Management system has taken a phenomenal growth. However, the said technological advancement is yet to be organised and implemented in all sectors of Siddha Health Care centres. This will also facilitate health care professionals for making appropriate decisions in Patient care with the help of the available information and tools. Accordingly, the attitude of the Practitioners is required to be assessed before implementation. This study aims to bring out the attitude of Siddha Practitioners towards impact of Information technology based Personalised Patient Care Management (PPCM) in the Siddha Health care centres in Chennai.
