Maatri will help a Mother and her family
Every day, scientists and clinicians develop new and improved ways for studying, treating, and perhaps curing diseases that affect us. Newer and perhaps better solutions are always being developed. Healthcare innovation, on the other hand, should not be taken for granted.
Innovations in health care should be regarded as a challenge to those willing to produce new solutions, rather than as something to be anticipated or feasible with the same players.
If there is anything that was the most affected and stood exposed in India, it was the dilapidated condition of the Indian healthcare system. The COVID-19 epidemic shook India’s healthcare system to its core. Both the private and public sectors worked together to combat the epidemic.
Medical experts and equipment, as well as testing and isolation beds for treatment, have been donated by private Indian healthcare firms to government COVID-19 facilities.
But, if we see and closely observe, we have a long way and an extreme long journey to travel in order to revoke back the fallen and mishandled medicine sector. In the second wave, if we saw people struggling for oxygen, we even saw mothers helplessly finding beds for their delivery dates to come.
Knowing that something of this sort might end India if the second wave hits, two able people from Gurgaon, Haryana focused on constructing a website solely dedicated to mothers. To tackle this the Maatri digital health platform from Nexus HealthTech helps moms keep track of the health of their children and other family members.
Women with children under the age of five can use WHO standards to track their child’s growth. It might, for example, serve as a personal pediatrician for mothers, allowing them to follow their child’s vaccinations and developmental milestones, as well as produce health cards and communicate with doctors through the internet.
The gadget can also assist parents discover any early signs of developmental issues in their children’s behaviour as part of a screening exam. Only a few of its functions include health-related updates and monitoring, as well as teleconsultation and the administration of health data.
Two entrepreneurs started working on the digital healthcare revolution in 2019 to prepare for the pandemic. Amit Singhal has 18 years of experience in the corporate world, most recently serving as the IT Director for VECV/Royal Enfield – Eicher Group.
Amit Vyas spent over two decades working for firms like HCL and Aon before deciding to start his own. Nexus HealthTech Pvt Ltd was founded in Gurugram by the pair with the objective of using technology and creativity to revolutionize India’s healthcare system.
The company’s goal is to give individuals with individualized care and attention. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Maatri collaborated with NABL and ICMR-certified laboratories to provide radiology and pathology services. Exams for Covid-19 can be scheduled online and done at home.
The reports are produced online and made available to the user by using the software. The Vitals Tracker, which is part of Maatri’s application, monitors oxygen, blood sugar, blood pressure, and body temperature.
Membership packages ranging from Rs 199 to Rs 499, depending to the company’s business model, are required for users to use the company’s services. Physician partners provide online consultation services, which generate additional income for the company.
There have been more than 50,000 installations, 61 specialists, and 24 clinical tie-ups reported in Maatri. September 2020 saw the business get a $300,000 angel investment. For decades, healthcare innovators have depended on start-ups.
It is critical to keep them in the conversation, as is supporting smaller, more nimble firms to continue inventing in the way that they do best. Finally, the startup’s mindset is rethinking and embracing disruption in order to challenge norms and create more efficient, higher-quality solutions.
Despite COVID, it appears plausible that startups become a relevant and necessary element of the industry’s debate. Everyone believes that healthcare has to improve, regardless of who you ask. Health-care solutions will not progress until we invest in and trust a diversified set of companies that can address a wide range of issues.
As healthcare startups are flourishing in India and we at Startup Trak always encourage youngsters to go in this field so if you want to start your own startup company, your healthcare company in India plans to offer Application-based Services, such as telemedicine, it must register with the Department of Telecommunications as a “Other Service Provider” (OSP).
