Part of funds will be used to bolster and upgrade our technology, especially the incorporation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to provide an enhanced value added customer experience & expansion to PAN India.”

The trending aspect of Artificial intelligence will be highly beneficial for the users of the online portal as it will translate the gathered information into tangible results. The development of user-interface will produce highly reliable, repeatable and accurate results. With the synergy of Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning, a digital revolution is expected in the online healthcare to optimize user experience.

The leading online health portal already has firm roots in the field of diagnostics and has collaborations with many leading hospitals (Both NABL and JCI accredited) across the country. Within 2 years of inception, the portal has drastically improved the accessibility to healthcare for all. With an aim for the patients to manage their finances efficiently, another vertical plan my surgery helps them compare costs of surgery in various hospitals on a single click.

“We are pleased to have closed our second round of funding and this will hold us in good stead while we spread out geographically. We also have received an overwhelming response from the people about the services rendered being of great help to them. Ease of access, the saving of time, transparency, comparative cost and credibility are few traits due to which even the corporate sector have preferred our services.” Added Dr. Gupta.

With PAN India success, the online portal continues to delight the patients with the quality services. Healthcare and testing has always been a necessity and a time consuming chore, which has been made easy and highly accessible with the use of technology.
