Cura Health is a medical assistance app that offers online ticketing, telemedicine and lab test services. The app was launched in November 2020 and has over 10,000 users. Its services are currently available in Kathmandu, Pokhara, Biratnagar and Itahari.

 “The app was created to offer quick and easy medical access to its users,” says Aayush Bhagat, the founder of Cura Health. “The idea for the app was conceived after we saw that people had to go through a lot of trouble just to consult a doctor and get even minor medical tests.”

The company works with over 50 hospitals and more than 300 doctors. Compared to the fares of other labs, its services are much cheaper as well. For example, the standard market price for a thyroid test is Rs 1,200, whereas at Cura Health the service is available at Rs 800. Similarly, the starting price for a full body checkup can cost you anywhere between Rs 5,000 and Rs 8,000. Cura Health offers this service in the Rs 3,500-Rs 5,500 price range.

Cura health collaborates with over 20 labs that users can select from.

“We offer a list of labs and their services, at the comfort of one's own home, so that users can compare and pick the one they think is the best,” says Bhagat.

The company is planning to expand its coverage in other parts of the country.

“We want to change the way people think about medical care and services,” says Bhagat.
