WhatsApp-based telemedicine for rural India with AI triage in regional languages
Rural India has 1 doctor per 10,000 people. Villagers travel hours for basic consultations. Existing telemedicine apps need smartphones and good internet — both scarce in rural areas.
A WhatsApp bot that does initial symptom triage in the patient's language, connects to a doctor via voice call, and sends prescriptions as WhatsApp images. Works on any phone with WhatsApp.
