ETtechHealthtech startup Eka Care has raised $15 million in a funding round led by Hummingbird Ventures, with participation from 3one4Capital, Mirae Asset, Verlinvest and Aditya Birla Ventures.
Flipkart cofounder Binny Bansal and Rohit MA, cofounder of the Cloudnine group of hospitals, also invested in the firm.
"Our vision is to build a technology backbone to create and manage a health profile for every Indian… We are super excited to continue reforming the way healthcare is delivered in India by building tools for healthcare providers and users," said Vikalp Sahni, cofounder and chief executive of Eka Care.
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 three crore health records and 16 lakh Ayushman Bharat Health Accounts (ABHA), and says over 5,000 doctors use its products.
“Eka Care is the first private platform approved by Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission to facilitate the creation of the ABHA card. It is an ABDM-approved app where users can receive their digital medical records from ABDM-affiliated health service providers,” Sahni added.
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 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.
