Good habits start at a young age. But nowadays, 65% of children (at a young age) are addicted to gadgets or some other form of games that can have long-term consequences in later life. But don’t worry. Health Basix is here. 

Health Basix is a platform that manages a child's health by providing comprehensive assessment and virtual care for their parents and caregivers so that students receive the right medical attention at the right time whether in school or at home.

How do they do?

  • Diagnose the kids. Identify their strengths and weaknesses. 
  • 24x7 helpline to answer all possible queries regarding any health problem. Offline doctor consultation is also available. 
  • Collect, store and keep track of student health information to provide continuity of care.
