Patient-centric solutions:
Healthcare is a basic human right, yet many patients face significant challenges in receiving the appropriate healthcare. These challenges are complex like expensive treatments, long waiting times, crowded hospitals, insufficient communication, geographical location, and overwhelming healthcare processes. These barriers often stop the patients from receiving proper care. Here are Parchaa’s solutions,
- ABDM registration module: Enrol in the Indian government’s Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) through a mobile number or Aadhar card. All medical professionals nationwide will recognize the 14-digit unique number (ABHA ID). Patients are eligible to receive digital healthcare anywhere in the country.
- Secure health record repository: Patients can get rid of their cumbersome paper medical file bundles, and instead can store medical reports in their Parchaa mobile application. All the medical data can be shared on a consent basis with doctors when needed and in emergencies, you need not carry all documents, since everything is available on mobile.
- Symptom checker: Our AI-enabled symptom checker provides a chance for the patient to get a preliminary self-diagnosis. This is mainly helpful to rural patients where healthcare is inaccessible. By answering a few questions, the preliminary diagnosis and its necessity, and urgency to have a hospital appointment are displayed on Parchaa mobile application. Rural populations can mainly benefit from this module.
- Appointment scheduling: Based on the symptom checker’s diagnosis patients can easily book an appointment with healthcare professionals of their choice. Complete all the pre-visit formalities at home and in the hospital, they can directly enter the doctor’s room. This avoids long waiting times and crowds in the hospital.
- Medical education handouts: Parchaa provides medical educational resources on various diseases to patients. They are in pictorial representation to make patients understand better about the condition they are suffering from, their symptoms, and treatments. This empowers the patients to make informed decisions on their treatment.
- Medical adherence tracker: Patients can monitor and track their adherence to prescribed medical treatments. Patients require clear instructions, regular follow-ups, and engagement to stick to their medications and therapies. This ensures the well-being of the patient and improves treatment efficiency.
- Alert and Reminder: Patient engagement is much needed to keep up their health and they require clear instructions and regular follow-ups to stick to their medications and therapies. Parchaa provides alerts and reminders to the registered mobile number on messages, WhatsApp, and in-app notifications.
Physician-centric solutions:
Physicians are the backbone of Indian healthcare delivery systems. Physicians are burning out due to excessive patient load, limited resources, and increased paper documentation tasks. In India, average consultation time in crowded hospitals is just 2 mins and physicians may miss out on some important details. This can impact the diagnosis, treatment outcome and patients' well-being. Parchaa offers solutions that can give peace of mind to doctors and allow them to see more patients in a day.
- HPI Generator: Parchaa's HPI Generator would generate the case history of a patient by compiling all the medical data available. Generated case history would be comprehensive and accurate. This would save time, reduce the workload for doctors, and ensure thorough assessments.
- CDSS (Clinical Decision Support System): CDSS are powered by AI and up-to-date on clinical guidelines and protocols to assist doctors in making medical decisions. Parchaa’s CDSS has 5 modules for Diagnosis, investigations, medication, ADR identifier and contraindications. CDSS will help doctors practice personalized medicine, increase treatment efficiency, and reduce work stress.
- Medical resource module: Doctors have to be in synchronous with current treatment guidelines and protocols to deliver better care to the patient. Parchaa resource module provides access to recent research publications, journals, and literature pertinent to their field.
Hospital-centric solutions:
In Indian hospitals, there are ongoing challenges that need to be addressed. These include prolonged patient waiting times, ineffective patient flow management, inefficient patient record storage, and pharmacy errors. These issues are critical in ensuring that timely and high-quality care is delivered.
- ABDM token generation and queue management: This will optimize patient flow, enhance the overall experience, and reduce patient waiting times with an automated queue and token system. Patients will receive updates on the live status of their tokens in the Parchaa mobile application, thus reducing excessive waiting hours in hospitals. This would improve transparency in the process and put a good impression on the hospital management systems.
- Patient Flow Management- Automated Triaging: With this module, hospitals can efficiently manage the movements of patients through various stages of care to streamline the patient flow. Hospital management can optimize patient care by assessing urgency, efficiently allocating resources, and effective use of medical personnel.
- Scan and share: Enables patient and hospital management to scan a QR code and share medical data securely with doctors and other professionals. This fosters seamless collaboration and improves communication within the hospital departments.
- Department/Hospital-based Insights: Our AI-enabled application will do timely analysis to give valuable insights into departmental and hospital operations. This enables the hospital management to make informed decisions to optimize resource allocation thus improving patient experience.
- Pharmacy-Doctor Linkage Module: Parchaa application facilitates seamless coordination between pharmacies and healthcare providers which ensures efficient communication and prescription fulfilment. This would avoid medication errors and improve treatment outcomes.
- Appointment intake forms: This module improves the appointment process with digital intake forms for accuracy and convenience, creating a paperless experience.
- Digital delivery of reports: At the end of the hospital visit, patients receive their medical report for the visit in the digital format, which is stored in the hospital system and their Parchaa mobile application. Digital delivery of reports guarantees fast and secure delivery of medical reports to improve healthcare communication. If reports are in paper format, patients can easily miss them for the next visit.
Parchaa provides an array of customizable solutions to cater to the needs of the user. We are working together to revolutionize the Indian healthcare system by comforting the doctors in their workplace, improving patients' hospital experience, and delivering proper healthcare.
