The startup was also in the process of launching new services by collaborating extensively with hospitals to further improve users’ healthcare experience. It currently has tie-ups with healthcare solution providers including BLK hospitals, Apollo Hospital, Sakra Hospital, Manipal Hospital, ARTEMIS, and several others. It is also trying to have tie-ups with several hospitals in Chennai, Mumbai, and Hyderabad.
