CitiusTech, DocOnline and SEED join hands to enhance healthcare access in urban slums of Hyderabad and Bengaluru

At the heart of the initiative is the Capacity Building Training Program for Frontline Health Care Workers (FLEs). A total of 625 FLEs have been trained on key topics including women’s health, malnutrition, Non Communicable Diseases, child safety, and the use of digital healthcare tools, in collaboration with Integrated Child Development Services, Women and Child Development, the Health Commissioner’s office, and Child Development Project Officers.

To strengthen last-mile healthcare access, the program has integrated DocOnline’s telemedicine platform, enabling trained Frontline Executives (FLEs) to connect underserved slum communities with certified doctors. This digital solution offers free, real-time medical consultations, removing barriers such as travel time, clinic wait times, and out-of-pocket costs.

To ensure sustainable healthcare delivery, DocOnline will also train 50 Village Level Entrepreneurs (VLEs) equipping them to serve as community health facilitators while building sustainable livelihoods.

The initiative further includes community health camps, offering free check-ups and preventive screenings, and mental health group sessions addressing issues like self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and social media impact—promoting holistic well-being and resilience.

Manasije Mishra, Managing Director, DocOnline, said, “This collaboration with CitiusTech and SEED is a step toward strengthening primary healthcare delivery for vulnerable communities. By combining training, digital access, and community engagement with DocOnline’s clinical excellence and access to experienced doctors, we aim to create lasting impact and ensure quality healthcare for all.”

Aiming to impact over 50,000 lives in the urban slums of Hyderabad & Bengaluru, the initiative is not only expanding access to primary healthcare but also helping strengthen and reduce pressure on public health systems.
