A good look around our community is all it takes to understand how the lower-income strata including drivers, house helps, vegetable vendors and security guards, are going about their daily activities despite their underlying painful, life-threatening health conditions. A lot of these can be resolved with suitable surgeries. Unfortunately, the first thought that comes to their minds when treatment is suggested is not “how”, but how it’s “not possible”.
A delay in appropriate medical treatment can escalate into a life-threatening condition, just like Deepak’s gallstone surgery, which he has been postponing for months now.

“Even a minor bump on the road while driving the cab causes a shooting pain in my stomach and this goes on for 14 hours during my shift. I am torn between having to send money to my family or get my gallbladder stones removed surgically. With expenses increasing exponentially, the month seems to end faster leaving us with empty pockets again.” - Deepak, cab driver
HexaHealth is helping bridge the gap between medical needs and financial limitations
A majority of Indians, like Deepak, are buried under responsibilities that often take precedence over their own health issues. They end up putting a huge chunk of their incomes towards sustenance rather than healthcare. HexaHealth wishes to make sure such individuals get the treatment they deserve with a path-breaking initiative - #ifpossible - a venture that helps raise funds for those in need of medical attention.“It is unfortunate that because of financial constraints, the ‘right’ to good health usually ends up becoming a ‘luxury’ for such patients. They do not have insurance support or coverage under government benefits. And they depend on their immediate earnings for their daily needs. There are hardly any savings leftover that can cover the cost of medical treatment.” - Ankur Gigras, Co-founder, HexaHealth
But now, it is becoming a challenge for them to help 100+ needy patients awaiting surgeries
HexaHealth has been providing assistance to patients throughout their surgery journey, while addressing their many apprehensions & difficulties, including financial constraints. But with the staggering number of cases they receive daily, it is now becoming a challenge for HexaHealth to cater to the lower strata.“At HexaHealth, our efforts are to ensure nobody is denied a healthy life only because they are shouldering responsibilities – be it financial requirements of the family, children’s education or any other pressing commitments.” - Ankur Gigras
