Smile Foundation, in partnership with SBI Cards & Payment Services Limited, launched an initiative in Mewat region of Haryana to improve access to quality primary healthcare through the establishment of Telemedicine Units (TMUs) under the E–Arogya Clinic programme. These units are being integrated into Health and Wellness Centres (HWCs) to enhance healthcare delivery, using digital health solutions to reach underserved populations.
At the core of this initiative is the objective to create a scalable and resilient model for comprehensive primary healthcare. By leveraging cutting-edge technology and strengthened infrastructure, the project aims to overcome the barriers of accessibility, affordability, and acceptability (AAA), ensuring that essential healthcare services are available to all, regardless of geography.
This partnership addresses a critical global challenge: the need for equitable access to healthcare in communities that are often left behind. By working to deliver universal health coverage, the initiative sets a benchmark for how digital health can be applied to meet healthcare needs on a broader, international scale.
