Health Issues..etc

Verification done
through Mobile
Number/ AADHAR
Number.
Lets say my Father
(Mr. GS) Registers.
He inputs his
health issues one
by one under
various categories.
He sets customised
reminders and
triggers (in sync
with his food
timings)
PROBLEM 1-
Forgets MEDS
SOLUTION:
He gets a reminder
alarm everyday at
6:00 pm
1. “Take Amlokind-
5mg”
2. “Record your BP
for today” ~ which
can only be shut
manually.
Next reminder-
every 30 days
“Record Blood
Sugar”
-He records and
inputs in app
12. Blood Sugar Report Analysis over the months
- Periodic reminder to measure and record blood sugar
- Create chart ready for your physician
13. CASE 1
Mr GS has customised the app according to his requirements.
Today he has a tooth ache.
He opens the THS
He locates an Endodontic in the app and views listed doctors, he can now :
check the doctor’s reviews
select one listed doctor
book an appointment
reach in the specified time.
He needs extraction. Being a high BP and elderly patient, doctor can’t extract before a series of tests.
Doctor prescribes tests.
Mr GS opens the app, locates a viable diagnostic centre.
He schedules his tests and pays online.
He visits the centre, performs tests and then goes home.
The diagnostic centre updates his records
An SMS is triggered in his registered mobile number. He can directly go to the doctor.
Doctor opens the ID and checks the test report and performs the necessary actions.
Reminders can also be set 1-2 days prior to any appointments, to prepare the patient accordingly.
14. Today Mr GS is in Delhi for vacation.
He feels discomfort in breathing, has a headache
and nausea.
His medical records is in Rumtek.
NO PROBLEM- he opens his app, shows it to the
doctor.
Doctor A checks his BP map- rules out heart
attack and points out that his dose of BP meds
needs to be increased.
He can also detect if his heart is healthy- provided
Mr GS has diligently input his BP data everyday
for last few months.
Mr GS does not require to go for another series of
tests, within few hours he is back to normal.
CASE 2
15. Set Reminder Alarms
Triggers SMS when
necessary – prepares you
for appointments
Take meds on regular
intervals - improves
efficiency
Records medical history
– can be viewed by any
medical practitioner,
anywhere, anytime
Hassle free recordings
and maintenance of
personal health data
Can map the readings in
a graphical
representation- easy for
doctors to view
16. 1. Case history is vital for every patient.
Mrs P, my mother was hospitalized in 2010, for Pancreatitis – (I remember
because I was giving my final year project when I got the news)
We were vacationing in Hyderabad she got very sick and was admitted.
There was no history and nobody knew the size of pancreas, critical
medical data, the meds she took etc.. We had to do series of re-tests,
expensive and time consuming. (only if we had this app, a lot could be
saved, she would suffer less and most importantly, It would have been so
much easier for the doctor to predict the cause- thus saving TIME)
17. 2. Attract Patients : Doctors today undergo complicated specializations
which a layman is unaware of. A registered doctor will attract a lot more
patients if listed in our app.
3. Schedule Clinic Timings: A patient can book an appointment, looking at
the online free slots Dr A has set for the day/ week.
- patient saves wait time
- traffic and chaos in clinic minimised
- Managed patient timings
- Doctor has prior information on the number and traffic and can schedule
his day accordingly
4. Follow up of old patient made easy
5. 2nd opinions error reduced to minimal
18. Miss D has consistent fever, nausea and abdominal pain for 5 days.
Viral fever? UTI? Malaria? Appendicitis? Pregnancy?
She opens THS app, looks for doctor listed under Medicine
10 doctors are listed, she reads reviews and chooses Dr. Navin
Books appointment with Dr. Navin for 1 pm.
She leaves at 12:30 and reaches on time.
Dr. Navin asks for
- Blood Test
- X- ray
- Urine Test
- Ultra sound
She books ‘Care and Cure’ diagnostic centre online for 3 pm, the same day.
Blood Test is generated by next day, X-ray is generated within few minutes, Urine test takes 3
days and Ultra sound report would be ready by 2-3 hours.
19. Instead of waiting and re-visiting multiple times, she leaves her patient ID.
The diagnostic centre updates her reports
A sms is triggered, and she books another slot with Dr. Navin
Dr already has her report in his smart device and prescribes her medicines.
She looks up for those meds online and follows the instructions accordingly.
-> She saved numerous visits to the diagnostic
-> reduced wait time
-> her medical data is safe and secure forever
Diagnostic Centre:
-> Reduced Traffic in the diagnostic centre
-> Increased inflow of patients

23. Strengths:
Patients: Hassle free, well maintained, easy
and reliable experience
Government: Healthy citizens
Employment for Kiosks
Easy maintenance and
tracking of reimbursement
Physicians: managed, well scheduled duty
Increased patient inflow
Easy detection of diseases
Diagnostic centre: reduced traffic, well
managed patients
Weakness:
Reliance in our internet services
Not everyone can afford or use smart
devices
Reluctant Doctors
Low population
24. Health care is a growing business.
Once people start using THS,
Gangtok’s hospital and clinic traffic
will reduce
Viable business for xyz co
1. Software solutions
2. Train kiosks, medical
practitioners
3. Supply Smart devices to
hospitals
4. Tie up with hospitals,
diagnostic centres, health centres
etc.. and prepare a management
system for them.

Threats:
Increased competition
Insurance plan changes
Adverse demographic changes
