Zorgers, a home healthcare start-up has raised an angel round from Ritu Marya Family Office. The funds will be used towards expanding their presence across geographies, and for mobilising 50,000 healthcare professionals in the next two years.
With growing lifestyle diseases putting a significant burden on healthcare infrastructure, and the spiraling cost of hospital-based care, Home Healthcare has emerged as the fastest growing industry in recent times. Managed Home Healthcare comes as a relief at both end-Healthcare setups and end consumers, the patients. As per statistics, currently 38 crore Indians need healthcare at home in the country. With increasing consumer receptiveness and rising clinician acceptance, the Home Healthcare market is expected to be 14.2 US Billion dollars by 2025. In the Post-COVID Era, Indians’ acceptance of home healthcare has multiplied manifold.
Varun Gupta, Founder and CEO, Zorgers, said “The COVID-19 pandemic has brought to the fore the importance of home healthcare and the impact it can have on India’s overburdened healthcare system. There is a definitive need for a professionally managed and organised home healthcare setup that offers the highest standards of customer service.”
Zorgers currently offers its services in Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh, and plans to expand its service network to 30+ Cities. The company has recently closed a franchise partner in Delhi, and are looking for franchise partners across India, particularly in Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Bangalore, and Kolkata.
