Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as hypertension, stroke, diabetes and heart disease account for 63% mortality in India. Tackling this critical health issue warrants extensive collaboration and partnership. Towards this, Dell Technologies in collaboration with ministry of health and family welfare and Tata Trusts, has developed a mobile app for management of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) at government Primary Health Centres (PHCs). The app will strengthen the existing NCD IT system’s suite of six apps for Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs), auxiliary nurse midwives, doctors, programme managers and health officials in the government. Minister for health and family welfare Harsh Vardhan said the new app will improve the screening and management of patients suffering from NCDs.
