The Internet of Things (IoT) is going to have its presence in all the essential sectors of human lives. It has the ability to provide both mainstream as well as the value added services in almost all the sectors. Healthcare is an important service sector for overall development. It has far reaching implications in the quality of living. In the modern world where the quality of living has been degraded significantly IoT can certainly play a constructive role in providing better services. In healthcare, there are several occasions such as patient health monitoring, remote observation and emergency proceedings outside the hospital where sensors can play essential roles. The coordinated sensor networks can provide even better services. IoT has the ability to provide all these coordinated services. Narrowband IoT (NBIoT) is an economical and simpler version of IoT which can handle these tasks effectively. Due to the widespread requirement of healthcare, NBIoT is a preferred solution as it needs fewer amounts of resources. In this article, we provide the main issues and difficulties of NBIoT in healthcare.
