The collaboration will not only benefit 28 per cent population with virtually no access to doctors, it will meets the needs of almost 70 per cent people residing in rural India with patchy access to quality medical practice.
Glocal Healthcare CEO Sabahat S Azim said the poor reach of quality intervention in far-flung areas of the country has had serious ramifications on public health and huge expenses.
