ArogyaCircle is a mobile-first healthcare application prototype designed to bridge the healthcare accessibility gap in rural communities. By leveraging AI and providing a suite of essential services, it aims to empower individuals with the tools they need for better health management.
In many rural areas, access to timely medical advice, pharmacies with available stock, and emergency services is a significant challenge. This digital divide can lead to delayed treatment and poorer health outcomes. ArogyaCircle is designed to be a reliable first point of contact for non-critical health queries and a vital tool during emergencies.
ArogyaCircle provides an intuitive, easy-to-navigate platform that offers:
- Instant preliminary health assessment through an AI-powered symptom checker.
- Real-time information on medicine availability and nearby medical facilities.
- A centralized hub for managing digital health records and accessing medical professionals.
