Bengaluru, April 7, 2022: To commemorate World Health Day, Sakra World Hospital, a premier healthcare organization in India that uses cutting-edge Japanese technology to provide ground-breaking healthcare, announced the launch of its most advanced healthcare support mobile application today. This event was conducted in the presence of the Chief Guest, Mr Masayuki Toriumi, Managing Director – SONY India Software Centre Pvt. Ltd.
The Sakra Patient mobile app is not just any regular application targeted towards a specific healthcare need. The aim of this app is to maintain the continuity of care between the doctors and patients, and address the increasing influx of information, something which the experts are referring as a must-have in the post-pandemic era.
Applauding the initiative to support patients better, Mr. Yuichi Nagano, Managing Director Sakra World Hospital, said, “Sakra Patient Support app has been designed with an integrated approach in mind that will ensure that physicians are available for guidance and specialised care is being offered in a simpler, easy to access format.”
Adding further, Mr. Naoya Matsumi, Deputy Managing Director Sakra World Hospital, said, “The Sakra mApp will be a stepping stone in the world of digital healthcare as it will bring a paradigm shift in how healthcare is delivered and the quality of life of a patient is improved without visiting the physicians physically at the hospital. The app will prove to be boon, especially in preventive healthcare.”
Mr. Lovekesh Phasu, COO, Sakra World Hospital shared, “The aim of Sakra patient support mApp is to ensure that patient gets detailed assessment of their condition, albeit virtually. Physicians may now heal and treat patients regardless of time or location thanks to real-time updates and previous patient data.
Mr Bhoopendra Solanki, Head of IT, Sakra World Hospital said, “More than conventional diagnostic tests and treatments, the omnichannel approach to ensuring a patient's well-being now includes post-consultation follow-up, efficient appointment scheduling, tracking of scheduled testing, and setting reminders. With the implementation of Sakra mApp, we aim to make the lives of our patients easy and stay ahead of the curve”.
