Medinfi is a pure-play healthcare content platform which offers verified information on doctors and clinics available in the vicinity of users.
Medinfi has an Android mobile application and website which helps users locate the nearest doctors and hospitals for everyday check-ups.
The application automatically detects the current user location and displays the nearest doctors, hospitals and clinics.
While the users can call the doctors and hospitals from the mobile application, Medinfi does not have any revenue tie-ups with either doctors or hospitals and thereby does not book appointments.
It has information on over 12,000 verified doctors, clinics and hospitals.
Medinfi has also worked with the Insurance Information Bureau of India, promoted by the Insurance Regulatory Development of India (IRDAI), for the Registry of Hospitals in Network of Insurance (ROHINI) project, which has provided unique identification to over 32,000 hospitals located across India.
