5C Network, a Bengaluru-based startup, has introduced Prodigi PASS, an innovative platform revolutionizing access to healthcare diagnostic services in India. Prodigi PASS empowers patients by offering convenience and price discovery within their local vicinity through a network of high-quality diagnostic centers.
This first-of-its-kind diagnostic fulfillment service enables patients to schedule their diagnostic appointments online through their preferred aggregation platforms. Around 90% of patients undergo diagnostic scans without prior appointments, often compromising quality due to the lack of a proper selection process for diagnostic centers.
This ensures prompt execution of scans without compromising on quality and eliminates delays.
Initially launched in Bengaluru with over 50 diagnostic centers, Prodigi PASS is set to expand to major cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai, Delhi, Ahmedabad, and Pune. In the next three months, the company aims to connect over 500 diagnostic centers and hospitals nationwide with patient aggregator platforms. TATA 1mg and Even are the primary aggregation partners for this service.
This launch comes after 5C Network's recent acquisition of Krayen, a US-based health-tech startup, further enhancing its capabilities in the digital diagnostics space. The platform aims to transform the healthcare diagnostics landscape by providing seamless and efficient access to quality diagnostic services for patients across India.
