Bridging the Healthcare Gap in Rural and Remote India
Addressing Key Healthcare Challenges
Lack of Medical Infrastructure and Professionals
These areas face severe shortages of healthcare professionals and facilities, limiting access to specialized care.
Financial Strain
Patients frequently travel long distances to seek medical assistance, incurring significant expenses for transportation and treatment.
Gaps in Continuity of Care
Fragmented service delivery with limited integration across healthcare providers results in inconsistent care, impacting health outcomes
Under-resourced Frontline Health Workers (FLWs)
FLWs often lack adequate training and tools to address complex healthcare needs, limiting their effectiveness in these underserved communities.
