Mumbai-based GOQii Smart Healthcare has initiated patient care operations in the UK through a collaborative effort with Modality Partnership.
The collaboration's primary objective is to harmonise GOQii Smart Healthcare's wide range of lifestyle and condition management services to enhance patients' well-being with Modality's commitment to NHS values, promoting healthier living and preventive healthcare measures.
Dr. Vipan Bhardwaj, national lifestyles clinical director and executive partner at Modality Partnership, said, "We are delighted to partner with GOQii in the UK. Both organizations strongly believe in preventive healthcare, as we aim to meet our patients' growing needs and expectations without losing continuity of care. We will work together to find innovative solutions to provide high-quality, excellent care for all."
Vishal Gondal, founder & CEO of GOQii, commented on the development, saying, "We are very excited about this partnership as it will help thousands of patients across the UK to improve their health outcomes. We already have several people with chronic medical conditions like diabetes and cardiac issues on our platform who have reversed their disease conditions and de-medicated solely with lifestyle modification."
Founded in 2104 by Vishal Gondal, GOQii is an Indian fitness technology company headquartered in Mumbai and California. The company expanded its presence with offices in Shenzhen, China.
The offerings include a wearable fitness band, a mobile app, and personalised remote health coaching.
Recently, GOQii introduced four AI-powered features to enhance its preventive healthcare capabilities. These features aim to give users better insights into their health and well-being.
Additionally, GOQii offers a '˜Health Risk Assessment' test and provides users with a '˜Health Score' through its app.
In 2016, in collaboration with Thyrocare and Max Healthcare, GOQii launched a new version of its platform, including a '˜Personal Health Locker' and access to a qualified physician known as the GOQii Doctor for medical consultations.
