The initiative addresses critical gaps in healthcare access, affordability, and continuity by shifting quality care closer to households and communities.

Operations are powered by a technology-enabled platform that manages recruitment, credentialing, scheduling, payments, and quality assurance for healthcare professionals. Services are delivered by a multidisciplinary workforce under standardized clinical protocols and continuous training.
