There are now millions of Indian patients online, looking for medical information . Unfortunately, most of what they find comes from places like mayoclinic.com . We need Indian doctors to establish their own web presence, so that information about Indian healthcare services is easy to find.
Even though Indian doctors understand the importance of having their own website, very few actually have one. This is because : it is expensive; they don’t understand the technology; and because web designers do not have the medical background needed to provide high quality medical information on medical websites . With the help of our unique offer, we hope to correct all these problems !
We feel we can leverage Indian IT skills and Indian medical expertise. This combination can allow Indian to become a global medical powerhouse and promote medical tourism.
Plus91 , a healthcare technology company at www.plus91.in, normally charges Rs 5995 for a professional website for doctors . HELP will offer this website free for hundred doctors.
We hope these grants will help young doctors to showcase their talents, and help them to grow their practice ethically. This will help patients as well , who will become aware of what medical facilities are available in India. The transparency which the web imposes will help to improve the doctor-patient relationship, by allowing much more open communication between doctor and patient, and cutting out the middleman. Interacting with patients online will help doctors to become more patient-centric and empathetic.
Information Therapy - the right information at the right time for the right person - can be powerful medicine ! Ideally, every doctor and clinic should have an online patient education resource center, where people can find information on their health problem . This will create a positive virtuous cycle.
