Driving Innovation Through AI and Technology

At the heart of PB Health’s technology lies one guiding principle. It aims to enhance every participant’s experience in the care journey, from patients to doctors and nurses. The company is embedding AI deeply into its health information systems. This enables voice-to-text clinical documentation, smart medical reports, and AI-assisted support tools for doctors.

Expanding Beyond Hospitals

Beyond building hospital infrastructure, PB Health is broadening its out-of-hospital network through partnerships and acquisitions. A key milestone in this expansion is PB Health’s recent acquisition of Fitterfly. Fitterfly is a Mumbai-based digital health platform specializing in diabetes reversal, obesity management, and heart health programs. This acquisition strengthens PB Health’s commitment to preventive care. It also supports its vision of reducing avoidable hospitalizations and extending health assurance to millions previously uninsured.

Strengthening Preventive Care Through Fitterfly

Speaking about the acquisition, Arbinder Singal, Co-Founder and CEO of Fitterfly, said:
“Chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity impact nearly 40% of India’s adult population. With its clinically validated platform, proven outcomes, and strong intellectual property, Fitterfly will significantly enhance PB Health’s preventive care strategy. We are excited to join PB Health’s mission to seamlessly integrate online and in-person care, improving outcomes, lowering hospital admissions, and reducing healthcare costs.”
