Building sustainable development with quality healthcare
Community health initiatives to bridge the gap in rural healthcare.
Community health plays a vital role in various aspects of individuals’ lives, including their ability to work, financial well-being, life expectancy, happiness, and more. It enhances safety and effectively helps curb the growth of chronic diseases in the population. However, robust community health infrastructure remains a distant dream in numerous regions worldwide.
At DocOnline, we have designed simple yet impactful healthcare solutions at a very low cost to empower communities by improving access to quality healthcare and reducing the need for long-distance travel to receive medical treatment.

Building Primary healthcare infrastructure via Corporate CSR initiatives
While there are thousands of Primary healthcare centres (PHCs) in rural India, delivering quality healthcare to remote areas remains a significant concern due to the need for qualified doctors and trained professionals.

DocOnline’s proprietary eClinic platform enables corporates to adopt PHCs and convert them to digital healthcare centres. The fully integrated ePHC setup and managed by DocOnline allows the beneficiaries to get a live video doctor consultation with experienced and MCI-certified in-house doctors in metropolitan cities. The centre also provides free blood tests, medicines, and minor treatment through a day-care facility, helping villagers avoid long-distance travel by 87%. The ability to monitor the ePHCs centrally on a real-time basis, the automation in pharmacy, and the patient pathway improve efficiency.
The project initiated by the Director General Medical Health (DGMH) of Uttar Pradesh in 10 districts is helping 4 Lakh villagers with over 3 lakh health services annually.
Clinic on Wheels - Delivering Quality Healthcare to Women in Rural India
In rural India, the lack of female doctors and the embarrassment of discussing health issues with male doctors prevent 71% of women from voicing their health problems. This results in the silent suffering of women due to health issues, leading to anemia in over 55% of them, as reported by experts.

DocOnline’s Clinic on Wheels tackles this challenge by delivering video doctor consultations, medicines, and diagnostic services through a two-wheeler clinic. The availability of specialist doctor consultations helps 98% of women avoid physical doctor visits. The health initiative for women is managed by 100% female paramedic staff, and GPS tracking of Mobile clinics ensures staff safety.
This CSR initiative by NandGhar, a foundation by Vedanta Resources Limited, is operational in 600+ villages, delivering 2,00,000 consultations annually and supporting acute health problems, pregnancy, menstrual issues, and child malnutrition.

Helping women in Rural India build a sustainable livelihood
Women in rural areas predominantly work as unskilled labour in agricultural fields, earning meagre wages. The absence of dignified opportunities in urban areas due to illiteracy and limited field knowledge, discourages them from migrating to cities.

DocOnline’s SwasthyaMitra model empowers enterprising rural women equipped with a smartphone and preferably a two-wheeler to establish digital clinics. Through comprehensive skill-development and training, these digital clinics deliver quality healthcare services within the community at a nominal fee. This revenue-sharing model is subsidized for two years to ensure sustainability and focus on increasing the individual income, while providing multiple health-related services, including Specialist Consultations, Diagnostics, micro insurance, and referrals.
By empowering women with entrepreneurial opportunities to solve the healthcare challenges of Rural India, the model contributes to multiple SDGs including Good Health and Well-being, Decent Work and Economic Growth, Gender Equality, and No Poverty. .
