Paytm integrates eRaktKosh to track real-time plasma availability across blood banks

It will also allow Paytm users to look for contact information and find out which is the closest blood bank to them.

The eRaktKosh app was developed by the Indian government to help citizens track blood stock across numerous blood banks. With this integration, Paytm has expanded the diverse range of digital healthcare facilities available on its app – under the Paytm Health section – for millions of users.

In addition to the eRaktKosh feature, Paytm Health offers access to many public health facilities, Covid-related services including online vaccine & booster shot registrations, vaccine certificates, online medicine ordering at discounts, doctor consultation, speciality checkups, lab test bookings and health insurance.

Paytm Spokesperson said, “We are committed to bringing seamless access to digital healthcare for all our users and the latest step in that direction is the integration of the eRaktKosh feature on the Paytm app. The feature will play a crucial role in the lives of people during emergency situations by allowing them to quickly track and share real-time information about plasma availability at thousands of blood banks located across the country, completely eliminating the need to run from hospital to hospital.”
