India’s healthcare landscape has undergone a remarkable transformation over the decades, with the advent of modern corporate hospitals leading to a surge in quality patient care. However, this standard of care is largely confined to tertiary care, leaving room for improvement in primary and secondary care. The convergence of healthcare and digital technology, such as telemedicine, wearable devices, and remote monitoring, presents an opportunity to revolutionize primary care delivery. Digital health tools enable healthcare providers to gain a comprehensive view of patient health, but standardized processes, clear SOPs, and advanced technology infrastructure are often lacking. By leveraging digital healthcare, a measurable framework can be established to enhance patient experience and clinical outcomes. India has the potential to become a global hub for dental and cosmetic treatments, but standardized quality parameters are needed to empower patients in making informed choices. Digital health companies can play a pivotal role in implementing these standards, particularly in dental care, setting a precedent for excellence that can extend to other medical specialties.
