health issues is analyzed, and measures are taken to create awareness using email, SMS, blog, forum posts or
web site posts. The system focuses on study of opinions and subjects discussed in the forum. Sentiment analysis

HealthCursor Consulting Group India- Distribution and Marketing- Mobile network operators in Africa have identified the growing demand for financial services and micro insurance . Airtel Africa has partnered with MicroEnsure for Mobile Micro Insurance. The range of Airtel-branded insurance products includes life, accident, health, agriculture, and other forms of cover.
Connecting intermediaries, customers and surveyors- ICICI Lombard India's mobile initiative started simply enough, with a set of basic applications that gave customers a consolidated view of all their policies, a reminder service to renew a policy, and a way to track the status of a claim. But as they matured with the mobile platform, they re-visited the paradigm and devised new ways to provide customers with more value-added and user-friendly features. This is however restricted to Auto insurance only.
Encryption, Transactions and handling customer grievance- Public sector general insurance company United India Insurance launched a mobile-based real-time fund transfer facility for payment of premium. M-Power enables customers to renew their policies and also remit the premium for approved proposals. To use this facility, one has to get an MMID (an identification number called - mobile money identifier) from his/her bank and enable one’s mobile with the application given by the bank. However, there are only 10 banks on board with this platform. This initiative follows the launch of its Internet-based sales, customer grievance portal and information-cum-sales kiosks.
Sales, awareness and providing access- Bima, a young Swedish microinsurance company, is using mobile phones to sell as many as three billion new insurance policies to the global poor. Bima, that has begun to access this untapped market, is now one of the largest mobile insurance platforms in the world. In just three years, Bima has acquired 4 million clients in Africa and Asia and is adding 400,000 new subscribers per month. Bima has been tackling many of the obstacles—education, pricing, premium collection—that prevent poor people from obtaining such benefits. For instance, Bima products such as life, accident and health insurance cost "as little as $0.20 to $6.00 a month. Last month, Leapfrog invested $4.25 million in Bima, which will allow the company to expand even further within Africa and Asia as well as reach into new markets in Latin America.
The Dire Need and Rise of Digital Chronic Disease Management in IndiaRedSeer

India’s healthcare suffers from a substandard infrastructure and limited insurance coverage, leading to inferior healthcare quality in the
country, as confirmed from multiple global indicators (ranked 145 out of 195 countries on healthcare access & quality, as per the Lancet study in 2016; ranked 66 out of 195 countries on healthcare security, as per Global Health Security Index 2021). The poor
condition of India’s healthcare system was recently exposed as the system collapsed during the COVID-19 pandemic (especially the period of second COVID-19 wave).

An “inclusive innovation strategy” is a set of policies that connects excluded populations to a nation’s innovation system. It complements frontier innovation by increasing the purchasing power and enhancing income-generating opportunities for the poor population.
Understanding the concept of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and how can we reach it, both globally and also in India. The presentation also includes HLEG report , which is the proposed architecture for India's guide to reach UHC.
I ndia is the second most populous country in the world with a population of over 120 crores. The number of doctors to cater to this continuously rising population is not equally sufficient. Owing to this fact, adequate and equitable distribution of healthcare services has always been a challenge in our country. Adding to this mismatch is the recent trend of concentration of healthcare facilities in the cities and towns which includes 75 percent of the population of doctors, which is away from rural India, where 68.84 percent of the national population lives. To add to the above challenges, in 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic has also contributed its bit to the unprecedented burden on an already burdened healthcare system in a country like ours.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Â
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
