Flipkart co-founder Binny Bansal and Rohit MA, cofounder of the Cloudnine group of hospitals, also invested in the firm.
The startup plans to use the funds for product development, hiring, educating consumers on the benefits of maintaining a health profile and helping doctors move to digital practice.
Founded in 2020 by Sahni and Deepak Tuli, Eka Care works on building health profiles for people for better health outcomes and savings on healthcare spending. For doctors, Eka Care has built an advanced digital clinic management tool.
The company claims to have over 30 million health records and 1.6 million Ayushman Bharat Health Accounts (ABHA) and says over 5,000 doctors use its products.
Users of Eka Care can create their health profiles by storing medical records such as prescriptions, lab and scan reports, vaccination and development milestones for children, heart rate trends, blood sugar information, and much more on the app.
All records are linked with their ABHA (Ayushman Bharat Health Accounts) account.
For doctors, Eka Care offers a clinic management platform that helps them to improve their online presence, create a digital diary, write digital prescriptions, and communicate with their patients digitally.
It allows doctors to save time and earn more from their practice.
