Medeel Helps Patients Compare Personalized Medical Options Without Setting Foot in a Hospital
When you get sick, all you want is to get better. But the reality, in India and almost anywhere else, is that different hospitals offer different services and charge different prices, and the service you get at one hospital might end up being quite different from what you’d get at a different hospital, even if you have the same symptoms. Indian startup Medeel aims to solve this problem by allowing patients to submit their medical records to multiple hospitals and solicit bids for their treatment options online. In other words, you submit your medical records, and then without ever leaving home, you can sit back and wait for hospitals to come to you with treatment packages. The advantages for patients are pretty obvious; the site basically allows you to start a public bidding process over your own healthcare, which (assuming you do your homework) should help you find the best care at the lowest price. Medeel claims the service is also beneficial for hospitals, giving them access to more patients and potentially helping them attract non-local patients who otherwise wouldn’t have considered traveling to their hospital. Clearly, at least a few hospitals agree, as six hospital partners are listed on the site and it claims there are also “many more” unlisted. When I asked founder Mohit Bahri for a specific number, he said Medeel had signed up 16 hospitals and was “in talks with another 15 plus,” mostly in the Delhi region. Obviously, the process isn’t instantaneous since the hospitals have to review each patient’s medical records manually, and getting a response can take 2-3 days, so Medeel definitely isn’t a good option if you’ve got any urgent medical issue. But for patients with the luxury of time, Medeel could be a good way to review a number of options without having to trudge around to each hospital in person to explain the situation and submit your medical records. The site is clean and clearly laid out, and it’s pretty easy to figure out what’s going on. With less than 100 Facebook likes and only one testimonial so far, it’s clear the site hasn’t attracted a ton of attention from patients yet, but Bahri says the company has already helped two patients receive treatment and has served many others. The startup is still very young, launched just a couple weeks ago, and it is already receiving inquiries from international patients, so those numbers seem destined to grow (“We understand that estbalishing a new concept like this will take time in India,” Bahri says). Given the creative approach and the fact that the startup is working to solve a real problem, we wouldn’t want to bet against Medeel.

病院に行くことなくカスタマイズの医療オプションが比較できるサービス「Medeel」
病気になったら誰もが治したいと思う。だが、インドおよびその他のほとんどの国において、病院が異なれば医療サービスも治療費も異なり、例え同じ病気の治療であっても、ある病院で受けた医療サービスが他の病院のとは大きく異なることがある、というのが現実だ。
病気になったら誰もが治したいと思う。だが、インドおよびその他のほとんどの国において、病院が異なれば医療サービスも治療費も異なり、例え同じ病気の治療であっても、ある病院で受けた医療サービスが他の病院のとは大きく異なることがある、というのが現実だ。
インドのスタートアップMedeelは、患者が自分の医療記録をオンラインで複数の病院に提示し治療オプションの入札を求められるようにして、この問題を解決しようとしている。つまり、医療記録を提示れば、家をでることなく自宅で待っていれば、病院からの治療パッケージが届くということ。
患者にとってのメリットはかなり明らかだ。同サイトは基本的に、ユーザー自身が受ける医療に公の入札を求めることができるようにするもので、(ユーザー自身もリサーチをすることが前提だが)最も安い治療費で最高の治療が受けれるように支援するというサービスだ。Medeelは、同サービスは病院にとってもメリットがあると言う。というのは、病院はより多くの患者にアクセスできるようになり、このサイトがなければ遠くて行こうと思わないところに住む地元以外の患者も引き寄せることができる可能性もあるからだ。
明らかに、少なくとも複数の病院が同サービスに賛同したようで、同サイトには6つの提携病院がリストアップされている。また、リストに載っていないが「まだたくさん」の病院があるとMedeelは言う。設立者のMohit Bahri氏に具体的な数字を訊くと、同氏は16の病院と契約を結び、「その他にも15を超える病院と話を進めて」おり、そのほとんどがデリ地区の病院であると語った。
同サービスのプロセスに時間がかかるのは明らかだ。というのも、病院は各患者の医療記録に実際に目を通さなければならないので、回答を得るには2〜3日はかかる。だから、緊急を要する治療にMedeelは向かない。だが、時間に余裕のある患者にとっては、病状の説明と医療記録の提示のために自らの足を運んで各病院を回らなくても、複数の治療オプションを見ることができるいい手段となりうる。
同サイトは分かりやすく明確にレイアウトされていて、非常に簡単に状況を把握することができる。今のところ、Facebookの「いいね!」の数は100以下で、「利用者の声」も1件しかないので、患者の注目をまだあまり集めていないことは明白だが、Bahri氏によると、既に2人の患者の治療を支援し、その他にも多くの患者にサービスを提供しているとのこと。
同スタートアップは非常に新しいサービスで、数週間前にローンチされたばかりだ。だが、すでに国外の患者からの問い合せも受けているので、利用者の数が増えるのは確実のようだ(「インドで、このような新しいコンセプトを確立するのには時間がかかります」とBahri氏は述べている)。同サービスが独創的なアプローチを採用し、現実の問題を解決しようと取り組んでいることを考えると、Medeelには成功して欲しいと思う。
