Practo launches surgery experience centres, forays into secondary healthcare
- ByStartupStory | September 25, 2021
Practo, a tech health startup, has launched 50+ Practo care surgery experience centers in six key cities including Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune, Delhi-NCR, Hyderabad, and Ahmedabad, marking its foray into secondary care in India.
Practo looks to work in the secondary care procedures that will enable users to digital and physical, and out-patient to in-patient environments. It is planning to tap into the $12-billion secondary care surgeries market in India, eyeing a 5 percent share in the next five years.
Practo, which now offers online doctor appointment bookings, telemedicine, pharmacy, and diagnostic services, will now offer an omni-channel healthcare ecosystem for secondary care or surgeries. This would be done through Practo Care surgery centers. Each patient enrolling for Practo surgeries would also be provided with a relationship manager who will guide him or her through the whole process, including insurance claims.
Currently, Practo Care Surgeries has taken up three specialties – general surgery, urology, and ENT and helping fulfill 50+ surgical procedures. The company plans to add more specialties – orthopedic, gynecology, and ophthalmology, to name a few. The company plans to expand its network to 30+ cities, launch 300+ centers, add more specialties (viz. orthopedic, gynecology, ophthalmology, to name a few), and onboard hundreds of surgeons by the end of next year.
