Now doctor, diagnostics at your doorstep with this revolutionary Mediczy App!
In modern times we have become so busy that we often ignore the most important tasks of life, healthcare being one of them. Hectic schedule, busy traffic, transportation cost coupled with expensive medical care keeps us away from a doctor, until it is something serious. What if the doctor, diagnostics and medicines were delivered at your doorsteps?
A one-of-its-kind app, Mediczy connects doctors with patients on the go to provide efficient and convenient medical care.
A one-of-its-kind app, Mediczy connects doctors with patients on the go to provide efficient and convenient medical care.
What it solves
Often termed as skype for patients and doctors, it solves four main problems that are preventing patients from consulting a doctor physically.
To start with, our fast and hectic life has pushed healthcare to the back burner. People are too busy to go down to a specialist. They often self-medicate or just let it be, which should not be the case. Research shows that 72 per cent of health issues are common illnesses and do not need physical examination. Hence, people can rely on the app as an alternative form.
This also comes to the rescue of people looking for privacy for sensitive issues related to psychology, spousal relationships etc. A large number of women too seem to have been key takers for consultations regarding menstruation problems, pregnancy planning or infertility consultation, pregnancy and post pregnancy care and lactation consultation.
One of the major problems that are crippling the healthcare system is the cost incurred to see a doctor. Most hospitals charge a hefty amount as the registration fees of which about 50 percent of the money is infrastructure cost.
To add to all these, our present healthcare system is not accessible for majority of the population. 97 per cent of the specialists are situated in the top 10 cities. Hence, those from smaller towns and cities do not have access to affordable healthcare. At present there is 1 doctor for 1700 people and the gap is going to grow, as per WHO statistics.
Mediczy is the one click solution to all the problems that create a gap between availability and accessibility of medical services in the country by connecting the patient with the concerned specialists within 30 minutes.
Some numbers
The app offers its users a strong network of eminent doctors across seven departments. Good No of patients consulted doctors via Mediczy across India in a short span of 3 months
Network of 500 top doctors across 10 cities include - Bangalore, Mumbai and Chennai.
"We plan to reach 50 cities in the coming 6 months," added Suresh CEO.
Suresh accepted that the doctors on the platform are not very large in number.
"We take full responsibility of the quality of the consultation and service provided to the patients. Hence we curate each and every doctor before registering him/her on the platform."

All your sex-related doubts answered by a sexologist in Mediczy anonymously!
Mediczy App: An Online Platform That Answers Your Questions about Relationships and Sex anonymously by phone or video call.
We Indians are really ignorant about sex. When we're growing up and start having questions, we are hushed. Even after we grow up, the only information we get is from adult magazines and now porn. So,
The whole idea behind the Mediczy App is to discuss and encourage people to talk about what a healthy relationship should constitute by phone call anonymously. All of your answers are given one on one, in a private call session with you and a qualified expert. It is a space where people feel safe to open up about their intimate problems and get expert advice too! The goal is to promote the concept of consensus as the basis of any healthy relationship, and to guide people when they are faced with troubles. After all evading such problems can give rise to more serious mental health issues over a period of time.
How Does Mediczy Function
Mediczy has developed a small group of doctors, with special expertise in the area of General doctors, sexual health and relationships & other categories also. These mental health experts work in shifts and are available online 24/7. Men and women are free to chat with the experts online and are guaranteed confidentiality – the platform ensures anonymity to users. The conversations sometimes even last for hours. “The whole point is to ensure that there’s someone to listen to you”, says Mediczy Doctor.
Mediczy App explains that the plan behind this is to get more women to talk about their sexual and relationship problems. “Although both men and women can reach out to Mediczy Doctors, we find it’s mostly men asking questions”. So, the idea is to build a community based on social trust for women to engage more and get them talking. To make it even easier.
If you’re having a tough time in your sex life or relationships #speakup as Mediczy app is here to hear you out. So #LetsTalkSexualHealth and #BreakTheStigma!

The
first mobile health applications were extensions of lifestyle apps. Consumers
could use them for counting calories, keeping track of diet and fitness
routines or even for help with quitting smoking. However, with smart phone
usage gaining popularity the number of possibilities has increased
tremendously. From tracking prescription refills and drug dosage reminders to
monitoring patients’ recovery at home, health apps are now acting as an
extension of telemedicine where the patients can get medical advice using their
phone. Gartner has named mobile health applications as one of the top ten
consumer applications of 2012. There is also a host of medical apps that are
targeted at doctors and physicians. All this is setting a new trend in
healthcare that empowers both patients and doctors.
1.
Constant communication with doctors
Apps such as Facetime and
Skype are already being used to communicate with people from across the world. Now
By Mediczy, a patient could contact his doctor from anywhere in the world for
advice or diagnosis, by uploading a screenshot of a lesion or for relaying
symptoms of an ailment. This would do away with the need for appointments and
long waits in clinics. Of course, before this happens, suitable mechanisms have
to be put in place so that doctors get paid for every consultation. Mediczy,
which recently launched a new suite of applications for Android devices, allows users to get medical
questions answered by a network of 100 licensed doctors in the India. Plans are
on the way to introduce in the near future a paid service that permits online
consultations.
2.
Easy access to data
With the trend towards
electronic medical records (EMR), doctors can easily access patient data and
reduce wait times as there is no need to search and locate a patient’s file
physically. This could not only help save lives in cases of emergency, where
every second counts, but also help for more routine requirements such as
getting prescription refills. For doctors, apps could do away with the need for
medical reference books. For instance, Mediczy, an app that provides doctors an
easy mobile source of reference for information related to drugs, diseases and
other information, can help to access medical information when away from the
clinic.
