Connecting Healthcare in India

Loop Health, a health insurance startup in India, aims to improve connectedness and accessibility to healthcare. They work with companies to provide health insurance plans for employees, alongside high-quality primary care services. Loop Health identifies individuals who require assistance, such as those with chronic conditions or recurring illnesses, and provides dedicated healthcare support and preventive care. The goal is to remove financial barriers, as insurance plans in India mainly cover critical illnesses, and make healthcare more accessible.
