Gramin Healthcare is India’s first start-up dedicated to support and bring primary health care services and access to specialist care in rural area through various health camps, collaborations and partnership with a global leader in health care services.

India is a growing economy and the agglomeration of resources through one channel is not a pragmatic approach, with around 700 million devoid of access to specialist care almost a million die every year due to inadequate health care facilities, we as a nation have worst case scenario in health care services.

This challenge is to cater the deserving underserved community of Tier 4 and below which need due attention. Public health services have done poorly even along the income distribution dimension. According to a study, the poorest 20% of the population captures only 10% of the public health subsidy compared with 30% by the richest 20%. The share in the subsidy rises monotonically as we move from the bottom 20%.The discrepancy and poor implementation of budget allocation have left a stark gap in rural and urban health care services. With India ascending the health care services on the tertiary level and becoming the new face of global medical tourism it dampens the zeal to notice the staggering figure of major gamut being unable to access affordable primary health care services which are necessary for the development of the nation .

Mr. Ajoy Khandheria an entrepreneur evangelist ,fueled with a passion for transforming the face of primary health care scenario took an initiative and laid the foundation of Gramin Healthcare with a simple vision to revolutionise the health care delivery mechanism and provide affordable services in the under-served market.

“Gramin Health Care and IFFCO teamed up to start an initiative with the purpose of enhancing the quality of life of people living in rural India by providing them with affordable and high quality medical services, life products & experiences closer to their homes.”, further says Ajoy.

In late 2016, after the initial success of Gramin’s first operational healthcare kiosk, the project caught the eye of IFFCO Group who saw an opportunity to partner with Gramin Health Care to provide affordable quality healthcare at their planned IFFCO Bazar Centres in 1000 locations pan India
