This project is a part of the solution for the problem statement for Google Solution Challenge 2022 The mission of the 2022 Solution Challenge is to solve one or more of the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals using Google technology. In this project, we are trying to solve the following UN Goals:
"eRx" aims to provide a technological solution that aims to solve the fundamental problems mentioned above by standardising the transaction of prescriptions between different entities.
I led the design of this project from end to end. I collaborated with 3 other talented colleagues (Hevesh, Yash, and Shubham, the developers of the product) during the early ideation stage and throughout the entire project.
Our main goal is to create a unified platform/interface for standardizing the prescriptions in India. These are the following problems that we tried to solve using the product:
The standardization and digitalization of the prescription offer several benefits to the involved parties. As all the prescriptions are digitized, the patient does not need to maintain a record of their previous prescriptions as it is readily available in the system. This also ensures that the doctor can look at the previous prescriptions to give an informed diagnosis.
All the prescriptions, regardless of the hospital or the doctor will have a fixed format that will have all the necessary information. Thus, all the parties know what to expect from the prescriptions.
The Paperless and Contactless transaction model will ensure that there is no need for paper, thus making the entire system more sustainable. Also, the handling of the prescriptions will be entirely digital and contactless, making it very convenient to use and share with the pharmacist.
To create a seamless digital solution that enhances the prescription management process for all stakeholders involved.
