Apollo Hospitals have tied up with California-based deep-tech startup 8chili to help them increase patient engagement through virtual reality. This is a first-of-its-king collaboration, where patients will receive an immersive experience. Patient counselling through virtual reality will increase patient outcomes and prove patients with satisfaction. 

The experience will be filled with an environment full of relaxing narratives that will induce control over one’s own body and physiological response. They aim to integrate VR solutions into their care continuum. 

Founder and CEO of 8chili, Aravind Upadhyaya helps create a platform that makes it easier for organizations to tap into the full potential of the metaverse. He said, “HintVR is an end-to-end platform to manage your metaverse strategy helping in original 3D content creation, metaverse customisation, and also delivery of this content across various metaverse real estates."

“At Apollo Hospitals we are constantly exploring ways to enrich and expedite the healthcare community, and the patient experience. Virtual Reality (VR) will change how both these things are done. The 8chili is a leader in the VR space and we are excited to work with them to integrate VR solutions into our care continuum.” said Dr Prathap C Reddy, Chairman Apollo Hospitals.
