Created by team HealthRanger on December 08, 2024

There is a massive medical crisis going on in parts of India, Africa, South America and SE Asia, especially in the rural areas. The doctor to patient ratio is so alarmingly low that doctors cannot fulfil their duties with utmost care and efficacy. Moreover rural folks are usually less tech savvy and educationally backward, leading to them not fully following doctor's advice or doing regular checkups. Which is why CHWs exist. While their work is commendable globally, they have their own special problems. Lack of formal medical education, digital tooling and poor ratios have also led to them not being deployed super effectively. And hence HealthRanger exists. HealthRanger augments CHWs with better tools for more effective medical surveys and referrals, automated follow-up tools and AI powered case management software at their tooltips. HealthRanger offers some of the following cutting-edge features at the disposal of CHWs: - Periodic surveys by CHWs of any skill level; powering them with AI powered up-to-date medical knowledge base - Augments survey questions with real time intelligence using AI transcription and AI powered suggestions/alerts/reminders/follow-up questions generation - Helps with case management; reduces error due to manual scribing using AI scribe - Creates real time alerts to inform other CHWs/health ministry with updates on outbreaks - Automated follow-ups/reminders for patients via Twilio and AI powered phone calls
