Apollo Telemedicine Networking Foundation

The Swaasth Vahan Mobile Medical Unit program delivers essential, on‑wheels healthcare services to remote and underserved communities. Operated in partnership with Apollo Telemedicine Networking Foundation, these modern units are equipped with diagnostic tools such as blood‑pressure monitors, blood sugar testing, ECG, and CBC analyzers. They offer rapid testing for conditions like malaria, dengue, typhoid, HIV, and COVID‑19, alongside facilities like examination beds and oxygen concentrators. By bringing primary care directly to rural hamlets, the program enhances access to medical screenings, diagnostics, and health education, significantly improving community health outcomes.

The HP‑THS (Himachal Pradesh TeleHealth Services) program, launched by the Apollo Telemedicine Networking Foundation (ATNF) in collaboration with the State Government and National Health Mission, is India’s pioneering telemedicine initiative for remote healthcare. Beginning in 2015, it connected hospitals in Keylong and Kaza at 14,931 ft elevation, expanding to Killar in 2018 and Bharmour in 2019. This satellite-enabled system delivers real-time emergency, specialty, and super‑specialty consultations via video conferencing and remote diagnostics. By stabilizing critical cases locally, it reduces patient transfers, lowers costs, and has become an essential, lifesaving service for communities in Lahaul–Spiti and Chamba districts.

The Tuver Health & Wellness Centre (THWC) is a partnership-driven initiative led by the University of Pittsburgh’s Business of Humanity Project in collaboration with Apollo Telemedicine Networking Foundation, Safe World Rural Services, and the Narottam Lal Bhai Rural Development Fund. Designed to serve the rural and tribal communities of Tuver, Gujarat, it offers teleconsultations, laboratory and pharmacy services, and a Common Services Centre—all powered by sustainable infrastructure, including DC energy. Through its Social Health Education outreach, digital literacy support, and doorstep health camps, the program has engaged thousands, forging self‑sustaining healthcare access while advancing holistic development.
