MetaDesign SolutionsAllied Healthcare and Medical Devices
Our pioneering work in Healthcare and Med-devices helps bring product and service innovation, reduce costs, improve devices and expand reach of our customers
This is a very large support sector to the care provider, to the payor and to the other macro verticals in the vast HLS continuum. Within these large industries we selectively focus on micro-verticals and niche spaces. These sectors are under pressure to improve effectiveness, gain efficiencies via online solutions, incorporate more digital technology into their business processes and to reduce their costs of administration and business management.
Allied Healthcare spaces that we focus on primarily consist of smaller micro sector-spaces, such as in CME (Continuous Medical-Sciences Education), Aged care, Child counselling and Child development, Diagnostics, Medical devices (ex. smart devices), Scientific Research & Development, Medicine management, Emergency response services, e-Clinics, and remote patient engagement (digital) and monitoring.
Afore-mentioned micro-verticals continue to see significant adoption of digital tools and platforms, a journey many started nearly a decade ago and now some have begun to incorporate AI. These industries have also seen the rapid emergence of new entrants offering solutions: which are the technology led companies offering specialized software led products, hybrid (product plus services) native digital businesses, and next generation devices firms, some of whom are also our customers.
Challenges and Opportunities In the Healthcare Industry
Steep rise in care delivery costs
Cost of delivery of care makes for a constant challenge in keeping escalations down. Insurance enrollments processes, TPAs and BA providers in the intermediary chain are under pressure to reduce costs. Moreover, a large number of compliance regulations must be met too.
Streamlining processes and eliminating Inefficiencies
Inefficient systems and poor management processes have plagued the healthcare industry since its very inception. Digital solutions tailored for automation, security and accuracy can reduce inefficiencies.
Healthcare information services
Care also depends much on the associated IT services and improvements they deliver can help maintain the overall quality of care. Healthcare technology that is data driven, is the gateway to achieving that ambition. Businesses can both increase their customer base and improve their impact simply with better capture, flow, quality and interpretation of information.
Innovation led development in care services
With the continuous entrenchment of technology and the gradual move globally towards much better care facilities, use of digital offerings and new smarter devices innovation is a visible trend.
We help Healthtechs provide Healthcare Solutions for quality care with digital technology and enhanced medical devices to improve patient services and streamlined clinical services workflows
Micro-verticals in focus

Employee benefits and health plans
Benefits Administration and Plans (TPAs)
Large enterprises use third parties to provide administration and costs/expenses/transaction settlement for employee benefits and services. We provide the technologies and digital solutions for such outsourced Employee benefits and Health plans administration.
Digital services and solutions for third party administration firms (TPAs) that handle benefits administration, operate flexible spending accounts, and manage related services have matured and become strategic tools. These tools are effective in the delivery of services, improving operations and in bettering experience for users in the processes related to annual enrollments and onboarding, new employee data migration, and claims processing.
Continuous learning and research dissemination
Continuing Medical Education (CME)
CME for HCPs is a specialized space that covers niche scientific areas learning and skilling, educational courses for doctors, med-sci communications, and research information dissemination to practitioners (doctors and specialists).
The space is being disrupted by new AI software and mobile applications that provide direct HCP communications and personalized interactions, self-assessments and certifications and more. Our best in class mobile apps, MCM (medical content management systems) and solutions for omni-channel MedEd (multi-channel marketing) are well adopted by the CME industry clients we service.
Our successful projects and offerings for our customers are now a key part of the value delivery chain of the CME industry in India, LatAM, Middle East & Africa.
