Health and Location Tracking for People Under Home Quarantine

As we move from Phase 2 to Phase 3 (Community transmission), the only hope left for us is to be more effective in identifying all the suspects, screen them, diagnose them and then monitor them over a period of time. Another very important point is to capture information of each of their contacts and make sure that they are quarantined as well. Even though it may look simple, managing health and location of so many people at the scale of a country or a state is close to impossible. Undoubtedly, health, law & order machinery is working to the best of their ability but providing care at home at this scale has never been done in the country.

NanoHealth started with the vision of reducing pre-mature deaths, primarily caused due to Non-Communicable diseases. Our current solution that is proactive, coordinated and continuous has two integral parts:

  1. Digital data capture: All health and operational data is captured in digital form by various stakeholders
  2. Recommendation engine: For each activity in the entire health system it gives 6 Ws for the next step. What Activity, Who(the patient), When(when next activity should be performed), why(next activity should be performed), Whose(Whose responsibility is it), Where (Where will the activity be performed). This ensures the accountability with both the patient and the care giver leaving very little chance to non-compliance.

Given the current Corona crisis, we could tweak the solution to give a robust platform to monitor and manage both health and location of home quarantine population.

Key Challenges as we understand include:-

  • Capturing data of each and every suspect case along with geo-tagging is virtually impossible without a robust technology backbone
  • Lack of trained professionals
  • Periodic monitoring
  • Contact tracing and tracking
  • Data roll-up for reporting is late, it will become more challenging when the number shoots up
  • Geo-tracking of patients is very important

Introducing our Corona HealthTrax - A comprehensive solution for overcoming Covid19 in India. The solution includes the following features:-

  • Corona HealthTrax solution (Ready to be deployed)
  • Register and capture symptoms and travel/contact history of every suspect (Anyone who uses smartphone can do this) (Saathi App)
  • System based guidelines (Lower burden of training) (Saathi App)
  • Doctor tele-consultation (Saathi App)
  • Tests requests are system generated, follow-up and results are updated in the system as well
  • All monitoring data is captured. Operationally any misses is flagged ASAP. Symptoms are captured digitally
  • Each confirmed patients are Geo-tagged at their home and their mobile phones are geo-tracked with Geo-fencing (Patient App)
  • Doctor tele-consultation (Patient App)
  • Reports are near real-time (Web-based system)

The solution is ready to be deployed by all state governments.
Best part is that once we are over the Covid situation, the same solution can be utilized to provide comprehensive primary and secondary care in clinics and hospitals.
