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.
