Digital health tools are advancing health equity by expanding access, enabling personalized treatment and eliminating geographic barriers while unlocking new opportunities to reach patients through telemedicine, remote monitoring and paving the way for bridging care gaps. EDISON Alliance’s commitment to accelerate adoption of digital initiatives is contributing to the SDG goals by prioritizing a collaborative ecosystem powered by multistakeholder partnerships and public-private partnerships (PPPs) as we reach midway towards achieving these goals to “leave no one behind” . These initiatives have successfully demonstrated outcomes of “patient-centric” healthcare delivery models that are accessible and have reduced out-of-pocket spending. The Digital Dispensaries initiative in the state of Madhya Pradesh in India, led by the Apollo Hospitals Group and a US telecom infrastructure provider is yielding real-time evidence in providing quality and affordable healthcare, along with generating stronger patient engagement and addressing gender health disparities. This is a scalable model that optimizes patient convenience, improves health outcomes and moves from patient- centric to patient-led pro-health model.As an empowering catalyst in extending the reach of digital healthcare services to the most vulnerable individuals worldwide, the EDISON Alliance continues to unlock impactful partnerships that have the potential to scale and expand faster across the world. I expect the alliance to contribute to greater investments in healthcare technology, more accessible healthcare and more partnerships to bridge the gaps aligned with SDGs, that will create the next generation of digital health solutions.
