Dhanwantri Seva Yatra 2026

A large health-camp programme. We are designing a simple, consistent way to record patient information at camps and a follow-up approach to understand what happens after people are seen.

The challenge

Understanding care at camp scale.

Large health camps see many patients in a short time. Doctors cannot complete long assessments, and records are often kept in different formats at different desks. Without a common way of recording who was seen and what they were advised, it is hard to understand who the camps reach and what happens afterwards.

The pilot is designing a light, practical system that fits the pace of a camp day and respects patients’ time and privacy.

What we are designing

A simple system that fits the camp day.

Patient data sheet

A one-page, tick-box sheet that a doctor can complete quickly: relevant history, diagnosis, and advice after counselling.

Desk-by-desk flow

Registration and vitals are captured at their own desks, so the doctor’s time stays focused on the patient.

Consent-led follow-up

Follow-up calls to a sample of patients who agree, some weeks after the camp, to understand how they are doing.

Privacy by design

Consent at registration, no names in any public report, and data used only for this engagement.

Camp-day flow

Five desks, one consistent record.

1

Registration

Basic details and consent.

2

Vitals

Standard measurements recorded once.

3

Doctor

Tick-box sheet: diagnosis and advice.

4

Pharmacy / referral

Medicines given and referrals made.

5

Follow-up

Calls to a consenting sample later on.

Questions the assessment will help answer

What we want to learn.

  • Who do the camps reach, and are they the people with least access to care?
  • Which conditions and diagnoses are most common?
  • What advice, medicines and referrals do patients receive?
  • After the camp, do patients follow advice and feel better?
  • How can the next camp serve people better?

The pilot is in progress. Findings will be shared here once the work is complete and reviewed with our partners.
