Midway through their undergraduate degrees at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Mayank Kale and Amrit Singh wanted to drop out. But their parents dissuaded them.
The duo had developed a software that created digital health records of patients and had already deployed it in Gadchiroli in rural Maharashtra. Asha workers were able to register patients, pull up the records of existing ones and prescribe the right medicines, all with a few clicks on their tablets, rather than sifting through piles of papers. They also deployed the device in Sierra Leone and Uzbekistan, all for free—thanks to some grants they had received from the University.
