In its bid to energize the online health segment in the country, particularly in semi-urban and rural areas wherein accessibility to specialized health care is a major challenge, iClinic Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. is in aggressive talks with leading private equity companies and individuals to raise the first tranche to the tune of Rs 25 crore.
iClinic Healthcare aims to provide specialist care to patients in semi urban towns by setting up centres from where they may contact specialists and super specialists in metro locations with the help of the local doctor and consult them for diagnosis, advice and treatment. The consultation will happen over an online video call with easy exchange of the patient’s reports over the web and will result in a specialists’s consultation summary and a prescription. These data will also be saved for future references. Most importantly, the unique model of iClinic is to reach out to the upcountry areas through Assisted Remote Consults using 3G technology, providing super specialty healthcare services in areas where specialist healthcare is suspect or is unheard of!
