Everwell Health Solutions is a healthcare technology startup company based in Bangalore. They are focused on leveraging technology to improve adherence to anti-Tuberculosis medication through an innovative mHealth project called 99DOTS (funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, USAID, and UKAID). Their mission is to use appropriate technology to empower patients to self-monitor their adherence, and enable programs to identify in real time which patients require additional outreach.

Their platform, 99DOTS, wraps medication in a custom envelope. Patients report their adherence using basic mobile phones and toll-free phone calls to numbers revealed only after dispensing their medication.

Incubated at Microsoft Research India, they have been developing and deploying 99DOTS for the past three years - check out their live counter for up to date dosage and enrollment numbers. Currently, they have patients across India and have early stage pilots in Myanmar in a variety of treatment settings in both the public and private sector. However, the largest deployment by far is in the public sector in India. They are expecting an enrollment of at least 50,000 patients in the next year, and are exploring opportunities that would expand 99DOTS to nearly 300,000 patients. This rapid expansion is happening in the next few months and will be a tremendous scale up of their operations.
