Hewlett Packard along with Narayana Health has been running cloud-enabled portable eHealth centers in rural India. These are built in shipping containers and placed in states such as Uttar Pradesh, where thousands of people are being given medical aid.
These containers are easy to transport and are equipped to deliver quality and affordable healthcare services to people living in areas, where finding the right kind of health care is otherwise a distant dream. These eHealth containers are built to connect patients in remote areas to receive healthcare from the urban doctors Each container is fully equipped with cloud-integrated diagnostics equipment, HP workstations and video conferencing material.
