Apollo 24|7 the digital Arm of the Apollo Hospitals Group and Microsoft India are collaborating to launch Enterprise Solution that can be utilised by organisations to provide their employees access to a holistic health and wellness solution within the Microsoft work suite.
The Enterprise Solution as integrated by Apollo 24|7 has been tested in a pilot program for Microsoft India employees for a period of three months.
As part of the pilot program, 5000 Microsoft employees were given access on this enterprise platform and over 50 percent of them chose to take virtual consultations with an Apollo doctor during the months of April–June.
In addition to virtual consultations, over 2,600 medicine orders were also placed using the App, which was delivered at the doorsteps of the consumers in record time. Each of the registered Microsoft employees had access to over 7,000 doctors and specialists across the Apollo network, the organisation said.
In the current scenario and with the possibility of a third wave of COVID, organisations have been increasingly on the lookout for digital healthcare solutions to support their employees and families.
The organisation further added that with deep integration of Apollo 24|7 with Microsoft Teams, a user has access to medical teleconsultation, vaccine booking, pharmacy, diagnostic tests, electronic health records, and wellness programs with just a click of the button.
