About this app

SehatSethu is a rural-focused telemedicine platform designed to improve access to healthcare services in underserved and low-connectivity regions. The app enables users in villages and semi-urban areas to connect with healthcare providers more conveniently, reducing the need for frequent travel.

The platform allows users to consult registered medical professionals through in-app video or audio calls. In low network conditions, consultations may continue via standard phone calls, helping maintain communication where possible. Appointment scheduling is available for both planned and urgent consultations.

SehatSethu provides a digital record feature where users can store prescriptions, lab reports, and medical history on their device. These records can sync with cloud storage when internet connectivity is available. Users can also manually upload or manage their health information for personal reference.

An in-app symptom checker is available to help users understand possible health concerns and decide whether to seek medical consultation. This feature is intended for informational purposes only and does not provide medical diagnosis.

The app supports multiple Indian languages, including English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Bengali, making it accessible to a wider audience. Its simple interface is designed for ease of use, including for first-time smartphone users.

SehatSethu also enables pharmacies to receive digital prescriptions and update medicine availability. This helps users check availability before visiting a pharmacy, reducing unnecessary travel.

Healthcare providers and pharmacists on the platform undergo a verification process. Access to data is managed through role-based permissions to help protect user information.

The app uses secure technologies such as encrypted storage and authentication mechanisms to safeguard data and improve reliability.

SehatSethu is intended to support healthcare access and awareness. It does not replace professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Users are encouraged to consult qualified healthcare professionals for medical concerns.
