Many primary healthcare centers in underserved areas lack basic diagnostic tools, making it difficult to detect and manage diseases early. Without proper diagnostic equipment, healthcare providers rely on assumptions or referrals to distant facilities, leading to delayed or inaccurate treatment. This increases mortality rates and worsens health outcomes for patients with chronic diseases.
Proposed Diagnostic Systems
C-Health equips primary healthcare centers with diagnostic tools for routine tests and chronic disease management, ensuring timely and accurate disease diagnosis and early intervention. The National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA) emphasizes the importance of strengthening diagnostic capacity to enhance healthcare service delivery.
