E Health Point
E Health Point are model public health units, owned and operated by Health Point Services India (HSI), a for-profit making company launched in 2009. The units provide families in rural villages with clean drinking water, medicines, comprehensive diagnostic tools, and advanced tele-medical services that “bring” a doctor and modern, evidence-based healthcare to their community. The program was initially launched in India and has plans to expand to South America and Africa. E Health Point provides preventive and curative healthcare services as well as access to drinking water. E Health Point Electronic Medical Records provide knowledge of the health profile of a community and also constitute a real-time disease surveillance capability, alerting local and state health administration on new disease outbreaks. Typically an E Health Point location starts out as a water service, then expands to a clinic as it become established. As of 2011 there were eight clinics and sixteen water points in India. Safe drinking water 

Water treatment is provided via advanced reverse osmosis and ultra-filtration units, providing clean water for drinking and cooking on a monthly subscription basis as a preventative measure against water-borne diseases. The water units also sell contraceptives and healthcare products. Tele-medical consultation 

Consultation with qualified doctors and trained health workers is provided via video-conferencing from HealthPoint's urban telemedical centre. Advanced diagnostics 

Diagnostics are located at each E Health Point clinic. They provide the attending telemedical center doctor with the patient's vital signs—including a digital stethoscope, non-invasive blood pressure monitor, and electrocardiogram (ECG) - and offer more than 70 additional diagnostic tests covering all major infectious diseases and many chronic conditions, including malnutrition, heart disease, and diabetes. Pharmaceuticals and medicines 

Each E Health Point clinic has a unit of pharmacy that dispenses primarily branded generic medicines, as well as a range of over-the-counter drugs, by a licensed pharmacist. Referrals 

Referrals to public and private hospitals are made for patient conditions - such as childbirth, acute trauma, heart attack, cancer, and others—which are beyond the primary care treatment scope of the E HealthPoint unit; patients are provided with specific advice and a printed referral.
