Apollo 24 | 7, the digital arm of Apollo Hospitals Group, and Microsoft India have teamed up to launch an enterprise solution that organizations can use to give their employees access to a comprehensive health and wellness solution within the Microsoft Teams work package. The enterprise solution allows the user to see an Apollo physician within 15 minutes of request; order medications from the vast network of Apollo pharmacies; and request to collect samples from home for prescribed diagnostic tests within Microsoft Teams.
Before launch, the business solution, integrated by Apollo 24 | 7, was tested in a pilot program for Microsoft India employees over a period of three months. As part of the pilot program, 5,000 Microsoft employees gained access to this platform and more than 50% of them opted for virtual consultations with an Apollo physician during April-June.
