Budget 2017: Five start-ups tell all about their expectations from Arun Jaitley
LiveHealth: Platform to keep your healthcare records live
Abhimanyu Bhosale, Co-Founder, CEO, said, "In the aftermath of demonetization, we are anticipating effective execution of the roadmaps laid by the Modi movement. Clear and measurable timelines is what is most important. Supportive financial systems and an uncomplicated process in getting clearances along with the provision of tax are some of the key expectations for the start-up ecosystem to thrive and boom in the country.
"The interesting thing to look forward for this budget would be how the government promotes and incentivises electronic payments to minimise economic slowdown as much as possible. We are hopeful that the government promotes authentication of e-based payments, where the entire process from sign up, authentication and transfer is smooth, simple and secure. We are hopeful that the Budget 2017 will be positive for the entire start-up ecosystem."
Start-up Diaries: Abhimanyu’s LiveHealth aims to digitise the system in Pune
In a country where availability of timely health care is an issue, Abhimanyu Bhosale is on a mission to fix the system in India. Graduated from Pune Institute of Computer Technology, he has worked in a renowned EMR company in Pune prior to entering the start-up world. Through his Pune-based start-up LiveHealth, co-founded by Mukund Malani, this innovator aims to digitise the medical process, provide a life-long storage for your medical records and bring doctors and patients under a common eco-system.
In an interview with iamin, he talks about his baby – LiveHealth
What was your inspiration behind starting LiveHealth.in?
While working with a Pune-based EMR company that creates medical records of patients, I found that patients wanted their records online. The company also assured them that they will introduce such a facility soon, but hasn’t provided anything yet. It was here that the idea of fixing this entire broken process clicked and LiveHealth.in happened. Since the introduction of our beta version, our aim is to work with medical practitioners and deliver medical records to the patients’ phone directly, providing an eco-system advantage.
What is it all about?
LiveHealth is an experience driven input system which aims at changing how health care system interacts with patients. This venture hit the markets in 2014. In India, despite of having automated machines, most of the medical processes are still paper based. Nobody has yet been able to bring all these on a digital platform; this is where LiveHealth comes in picture. It is basically a platform that brings doctors and patients on a single platform, thus making interaction faster and easier. It provides a life-long storage for your medical records, a list of medical practitioners to look out for and interact with the one suitable, health packages etc. We started as a bootstrap, but now we have introduced our app.
What challenges did you face starting LiveHealth?
Our major challenge was to gather the best expertise. Initially we faced a lot of problems, for not being from the medical background. We consulted a few doctors, visited diagnostic centres and tried to understand the process and we are still learning and evolving. We worked together with doctors and tried to understand the problems patients faced, thus finding a solution together. We developed a cloud-based system to which the diagnostic equipments were interfaced. We are also applying for a patent which allows remote interfacing. All this was possible because of our hard work and co-operation of doctors.
Why is LiveHealth service not open to new users?
Currently it is a closed loop for old users. The reason for limiting our service to our previous regular users is that we aim at providing qualitative services to our users. But, we are in process to make it available to new users by January 2016.
How do you aim to bring a change in the health care system through your venture?
We are connecting the health care provider and the patient on the eco-system. The medical equipments are integrated with LiveHealth interface that sends reports to the doctor’s phone and back to the patients with recommendations. Thus, we make a difference as immediate reports are sent to the patient’s phone, thus saving time and hassles of travelling.
Where does the revenue come from?
The major medical processes of our health care providers, from billing, diagnostic equipments, reports etc are interfaced with our database. We have a revenue model; you can say a flash model. It is a monthly subscription model for medical health care providers. We charge them for providing the exclusive services for proper analysis, customer benefits and interaction.
Abhimanyu says that he lives by these two thoughts:
"To think creatively, we must be able to look afresh at what we normally take for granted."- George Kneller.
And a classic thought we all live by at Livehealth is ‘Don't compromise’ - Steve Jobs.

Not possible to curb virus spread via flash drives: Pen-drive designer
{o.a.}
The designer of the world's first single-chip USB flash pen-drive has expressed his helplessness in developing mechanism to control quick virus spread through the flash drives.
"It is beyond my control. I cannot do anything about it," said KS Pua, CEO of Taiwan-based chip design house Phison Electronics Corp.
He was replying to a question on how to stop the quick virus spread through flash drives, at Techfest-2011, organised at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) here yesterday.
Speaking at the event, Pua traced the history of highly successful company Phison, set up by him and his four friends in 2000.
We did not have enough funds and so we started off with a capital of USD 1 million which was borrowed from relatives and friends."
They came out with a single chip USB flash driver controller in May 2001. Two months later, they came out with the pen-drive, which was of 128 MB and cost $150, Pua said.
Their flash memory is used in all kinds of gadgets, right from smart phones to television sets, he said.
"Currently, there is limited USB flash drive security standard for the consumers," said Pua, a Malaysian Chinese.
