With an aim to make healthcare accessible to patients suffering from chronic diseases in tier 2 and tier 3 cities, healthtech startup DoctCo launched its centre in Agra, Aligarh and Kasganj. The phygital centers provides access within a 15-minute distance to super-specialists, is equipped with a doctor and leverages AI and IoMT devices to offer an omnipresent consultation between medical specialists from tier 1 cities and patients in small towns.
Commenting on the launch, Nimith Agrawal, Founder, DoctCo, said, “In smaller cities and rural India, nearly 70% patients do not get proper medication and healthcare facilities when it comes to super-speciality due to the unavailability of doctors and hospitals. At DoctCo, our aim is to bridge the gap and make healthcare more inclusive and accessible to remote areas using disruptive technology. Our centres provide end-to-end experience to the patients from OPD to surgical procedures and then follow-ups. We have a nominal fee of Rs 299 for OPD consultation enabling patients to save a minimum of Rs 6000 on travel, accommodation and diagnostic costs which are usually incurred in metro cities. We hope to bring revolution in the healthcare sector and provide cost-effective services to the people of India.”
DoctCo also have ‘Swastha Ghar Tak’ fleet running across UP which is equipped to conduct more than 231,000 screenings and tests and treat more than 50,000 people.
