2. Novatech Healthcare Company (NHC) initiated its R&D Centre (NRDCI) in
India in April 2011.
To serve needs of Indian rural population who lack access to good
healthcare facilities, NRDCI strategized and decided to build healthcare
systems and products. Hence, leverage NHC Japan.
Novatech designed a novel concept called “Portable Clinic”
(diagrammatically shown below)
3. To tap the growth potential of Indian healthcare market and achieve
futuristic goals by utilizing presently available systems from NHC and
creating new disrupting systems.
To understand and validate the Portable Clinic Concept across
stakeholders including Doctors, Hospitals, Rural Community or Wellness
Centers, Pathology Labs and others.

5. According to McKinsey, by 2015, Indian rural healthcare
market will grow to 44 percent, suggesting a market size
of US$ 8.8 billion.
Prof K Ganapathy, President, Apollo Telemedicine
Networking Foundation and Senior Consultant
Neurosurgeon, Apollo Hospitals, Chennai estimates 40
million consultations per year from rural India through
telemedicine.
Key challenges of the current telemedicine setup are
need for a dedicated infrastructure, high capital
requirements and skilled technical staff to operate
sophisticated systems.
6. The objectives of this proposal will be met by adopting a
qualitative research methodology.
