“In the 21st century, healthcare delivery must be designed to be inexpensive and easily accessible. The traditional model of healthcare delivered only at hospitals and clinics is not economically sustainable due to very high real estate and infrastructure costs. Also, the traditional model of revenue share with doctors leads to ethical conflicts. The time is right for disruptive innovation using digital technology and portable equipment,” Madappa added.
Founded in 2014, Mobident aims to create an organised industry for dentists and in the next three years, the company plans to hire 3000 dentists and train 1000 dental hygienists.
