Our Mission

What We Have Done

We started with a physical clinic in Ranchi (state of Jharkhand) in February/March 2020, which later transitioned into a teleheath clinic. Teleheath was considered a futuristic idea in March 2020 in India, however, it rapidly became ubiquitous once COVID-19 spread a month later.

During India's COVID-19 crisis Spring 2021, we accomplished the following:

Created a WhatsApp group to provide medical advice and direction to resources
Maintained daily Zoom clinics where individual consultation meetings were offered for patients to talk to doctors directly
Assisted ICU management with critically ill patients
Provided logistics and financial assistance to AASTHA in Patna to establish a 10 bed COVID Care Center
Provided logistics and financial assistance to ASHA in several communities to initiate food package deliveries and rural drives for car rentals, medical packages, and staff trainings
Offered medical review, medicines, and training to Singhvahini Panchayat in Sitamarhi
With help from BJANA, assisted in provision of 50 Oxygen Concentrators and 150 Pulse Oximeters, Thermometers, and Ventilators to areas in Bihar and Jharkhand
Procured and delivered masks and PPP to Bihar and Jharkhand
With help from BJANA, assisted in provision of one ambulance to AASTHA and ASHA each

Subsequently we have:

Held several health camps in Bihar and Jharkhand
Initiated physical clinic in Patna
Hired ancillary care staff for Bihar and Jharkhand locations
Continued with subspecialty consultations
Procured a Medivan for outreach and urban health camps

What Happens Next

We plan to:

Continue initiatives in rural and urban health camps, targeting at a minimum two per month.
Introduce screening for long-COVID pulmonary diseases
Provide screening for "silent killer" chronic diseases
Address malnutrition in rural and urban targeted areas
Analyze and address worker migration from rural Bihar/Jharkhand that creates a myriad of healthcare, nutrition, and child sheltering issues
Assist in initiation of Nursing Assistant school(s)
Fully implement Medivan concept as mobile health clinics
"Adopt a village (community)" in underserved areas

Our Clinical Model

We provide onsite screenings for "silent killer" chronic diseases to include diabetes, kidney disease, heart disease, hypertension, and recently added long-COVID pulmonary diseases.

Every patient gets screened for blood sugar, blood pressure, oxygen level, and urine dipstick. ECG and pulmonary function testing including the six-minute-walk test are offered as needed based on clinical/demographic parameters.

We also provide advice/management for presenting complaints of clinic participants. Basic blood testing (CBC, KFT, LFT, thyroid, lipids) is performed and medications are supplied for a limited period.

We have decided to supply footwear and long-term medications for patients in remote, rural areas who are also socioeconomically disadvantaged.

In addition:

Since our group consists of internationally renowned physicians/surgeons in various subspecialties, we offer second opinion and consultation for specialties including cardiology, transplantation, liver, kidney, and gastrointestinal diseases... to name a few.
