Digital health technology startup Doxper  raises seed round from Vidal, growX

Mumbai, Aug 28(UNI) Heathtech startup InformDS Technologies Pvt. Ltd. which runs Doxper, has raised USD750,000 in its seed round of investment led by Vidal Healthcare and GrowX Ventures. Others who participated in the round include angel investment platform Capier Investments, online venture capital firm Globevestor, and other angel investors including a leading onco-surgeon, company press release said. As part of the deal, Girish Rao, managing director of Vidal Healthcare, and Siddharth Dhondiyal, representing GrowX Ventures have joined Doxper’s board of directors. The startup will use the fresh capital to scale up operations and develop its technology platform by adding more layers such as machine learning, handwriting recognition and artificial intelligence on top of the current stack, Shailesh Prithani, co-founder and chief executive of the firm said in the statement. Doxper has developed an encoded pen and paper system, through which doctors can write prescriptions and patient information, and the data automatically gets transferred to the cloud. Patients can use the Doxper app to access their records, book follow-on appointments, and share reports with their family. Hospitals can also use Doxper to digitise their records by integrating their HIS system. 'The problem of not recording healthcare data in digital format is an expensive one and when solved has benefits of exponential proportions. The simplicity of the solution is the biggest USP of Doxper,' Rao and Dhondiyal said in the statement. Doxper is actively servicing doctors in Delhi/NCR, Jaipur, Pune, Bangalore and Mumbai. It also remotely supports a few doctors in other cities who are early adopters with keen interest in technology and its solution. The company claims that over 400 leading physicians and specialists have become its users, including AIIMS Breast Cancer Clinic, Prashanti Cancer Care Mission, Biocon Foundation, Jain Fertility & Mother Care Hospital, and others. The firm is also piloting with large hospitals. Several platforms offering doctor consultation services have recently secured funding. UNI JS NV1328
