About the Product – DigiQure E-clinic is on a mission to democratize access to high-quality healthcare for the 1 billion rural and semi-urban population in India using telemedicine.
In rural and semi-urban areas, where only 21% of all doctors are available, despite 72% of India’s population living there, the demand for healthcare services far outstrips the supply.
To tackle this challenge, the company has established telemedicine-based E-clinics in 10 working locations across MP, UP & Bihar.
These E-clinics enable video consultations with specialist doctors, digital prescriptions, availability of medicines and lab test services, and referrals to partner hospitals for secondary care if required.
This approach helps patients avoid the need to travel to cities unnecessarily, saving them significant time, money, and opportunity cost.
Moreover, it facilitates early detection of serious diseases, potentially saving millions of lives each year from preventable illnesses. To meet the demand, the company is partnering with hospitals for secondary care and teleconsultations.
