Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes and hypertension are a serious concern. In fact, according to an ASSOCHAM report, over two-thirds of individuals suffering from NCDs are in the most productive life age groups between 26 and 59 years. What's worrisome is that the burden of NCDs on India is long-lasting given-with 65 per cent of the country's population in the below 35 years age bracket. Can access to data help in making informed decisions and preventing the rise in cases?
Mallari Kulkarni - Head, Digital LifeCare, Dell Technologies has some interesting prognosis here as he explains about Digital LifeCare, based on an open-source platform, that aims to aid healthcare staff in population enumeration and risk assessments, screenings, and follow-ups, and the management of simple and complex NCD cases, while administrative officials can manage users and track performance.

At Dell Technologies, we create technologies that drive human progress. As part of our moonshot goals for 2030, Dell aims to transform lives by advancing technology opportunities in health, education, and economics for 1 billion people, globally.
Digital LifeCareis a flagship digital inclusion initiative of Dell Technologies, developed to help India address the rising burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as hypertension, diabetes, oral, breast and cervical cancers, at a population scale. NCDs in India have witnessed a rising trend, with 1 out of 5 persons suffering from an NCD, thus becoming a key focus of improvement for the government. In 2018, the platform was integrated with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare's national NCD program and its comprehensive primary healthcare IT system.
