Apollo has announced a significant expansion of their connected care initiative, Apollo Connect, throughout India. The goal of this initiative is to create a comprehensive healthcare network in India that will allow hospitals and nursing homes in both urban and rural areas to provide comprehensive patient care.

Apollo Connect provides a variety of services across the country, including eICU, diagnostics, surgical consultations, remote monitoring, clinical and quality training, and accreditation support.

Through this program, Apollo's partner hospitals will improve patient services, achieve better clinical outcomes, increase patient retention, reduce costs, and improve overall business performance.

Commenting on the vision of the program, Dr Prathap C Reddy, Founder & Chairman, Apollo said,

“As care providers the imperative for us is to collaborate and support each other to ensure no sick person goes untreated for lack of access to quality care. It is with this commitment that we have created the Apollo Connect program, an initiative towards building healthcare together, by bringing healthcare providers on one platform to provide superior care and keep patients closer to home.

Having built and run India’s largest hospital chain, we understand the healthcare realities and challenges, and have designed Apollo connect to aid hospitals and nursing homes to improve their operational and business efficiency through exceptional service support from Apollo. Collaboration is an immensely powerful tool, and we believe that by coming together, we can truly strengthen India’s healthcare ecosystem and ensure every individual gets the right support they need.”

Dr Sangita Reddy, Joint Managing Director, Apollo, said,

“Since inception, we have been committed to making India healthier by building and providing the best healthcare solutions. Apollo Connect for us is one more step in that direction where we help patients get access to quality healthcare as close to them as possible, including but not limited to emergency care, diagnostics, remote monitoring as well as surgical consults among others.

Every hospital and nursing home is an opportunity for the healthcare ecosystem to reach more patients and save more lives. We are confident that by empowering these institutions, we will be able to build a world class healthcare system in India where everyone has access to superior facilities and opportunities for the best treatments. We truly believe in the power of the ecosystem coming together and we’re set to go the extra mile to make this a reality.”
