- Healthcare Overview
Rural Health Programme
HHF collaborated with Wipro Care to operate Primary Health Care clinics in 11 rural villages, collectively serving 25,000 residents. These clinics conduct health assessments for entire families, connecting sick and vulnerable individuals with essential medical services. By bringing primary care to villagers' doorsteps, timely and suitable treatment is provided, significantly. Every household has been surveyed to check the health status of the entire family, with the sick and vulnerable people connected to rural clinics, which are conducted two days a week, per village. Bringing primary care closer to the doorstep in the villages has helped many patients get timely and appropriate treatment for their health issues. Diabetes, Hypertension, and other chronic diseases are rising in the rural areas very fast. With lack of health facilities closer to home, many patients find accessibility and affordability a challenge. HHF, in collaboration with Wipro-Cares, is implementing a Comprehensive Primary Healthcare initiative in 11 villages under Maheshwaram Mandal, R.R. District from 2022 covering a population of about 1.0 - 1.25 lac.Door to door household survey, using a customized health app, weekly medical camps, checkups and treatment, regular follow-ups post camps are the main stay of this unique program.
Help Desk in Government Hospitals
HHF Help Desk Systems in over 11 Tertiary Hospitals with a single vision to connect the economically weaker sections in leveraging public health for free treatment. HHF, through its volunteers and helpdesk in several major state-run hospitals, has been assisting poor patients in accessing free treatment. This year, we facilitated over 2 lac outpatient consultations and admitted more than 1,910 inpatients for medical management, including approximately 300 plus surgeries ranging from simple to complex procedures across various state-run hospitals.
