Improving immunization, nutrition and antenatal care in rural Udaipur

Solutions

Our solution consists of a mobile application for the village level ASHA (Accredited Social Health Activist), sub-center level ANM (Auxiliary Nurse Midwife) and primary health center MO (Medical Officer). For beneficiaries, we have created a health card, which stores their medical history in a near-field communication (NFC) chip. For community engagement, we send automated voice call reminders to beneficiaries in the local dialect. And finally, we provide health officials with dashboard analytics, so that they can take action in real-time. Altogether, we have created a longitudinal platform to ensure offline, informed, and accountable screening, referral and follow up care.

platform features

Icon
NEAR-FIELD COMMUNICATION (NFC)

An NFC chip, embedded in the beneficiary health card, stores medical history. The card interfaces with the health worker's mobile application to share/update medical history in a contactless, instant and offline manner.

Icon
BIOMETRIC ACCOUNTABILITY

The health card also stores the beneficiary's fingerprint or facial biometric template. At the point of care, the health worker conducts a live match with the stored template to confirm an interaction with the correct beneficiary.

Icon
GPS TRACKING

Our health worker mobile application captures the GPS point for both the health center and the household. In this way, we can confirm whether the health worker has reached the facility and utilize GIS mapping to identify clusters of high risk cases.

Icon
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

We send automated, dialect specific, targeted voice calls to share health information and reminders to attend the health camps.

Icon
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Our extensive data sets enable us to build AI models to predict health worker diligence and filter high quality data to predict adverse maternal and infant health outcomes.

Icon
CULTURAL INTEGRATION

Our solution has been co-designed with the community and health workers over 5 years, employing human-centered design and cultural sensitivity along the way.
