PlanMyMedicalTrip.com, has recently received Rs.1.25 crore funding from three investors – Bhanu Vikram Parsotam, Rohan Desai and Paras Patel. The funding was led by founder and company's chief executive officer, Anurav Rane. The venture intends on utilising the fresh capital to increase its catalyst network across the world and improving their customer’s digital experience. These apart, the portal also plans on expanding its reach to countries that are rich with prospects for medical tourism such as Thailand, UAE, Brazil and Germany.
The portal’s intervention makes it simple for a patient looking for specialised treatments to choose a hospital and doctor who best understands his/her needs. Because the international patient departments at many hospitals aren’t well equipped to handle patients from abroad, PlanMyMedicalTrip.com effectively becomes a one-stop destination for patients to compare doctors and hospitals, read reviews, receive end-to-end guidance on the treatment, travel and stay and be rest assured of quality. All this at a treatment cost that can’t be matched by any reputed hospital.
Talking about the new development, Rane says, “Even though our team strictly adheres to the company’s growth strategy to achieve its goals, this funding will help us serve our customers even better. It will also assist us in keeping our energies focused on our philosophy of ‘Humanity is the only religion’.”
Highlighting the reason for investing in PlanMyMedicalTrip.com, Bhanu Vikram Parsotam says, “I have been a part of the healthcare sector in the USA for close to two decades now. So, I am familiar with patient requirements here and strongly believe that PlanMyMedicalTrip.com is doing the right thing at the right time. Together with the PlanMyMedicalTrip.com representatives, I’m positive that we will be able to boost healthcare facilities across the globe.”
The three investors have a key role to play in PlanMyMedicalTrip.com’s growth story. Bhanu Vikram Parsotam has been involved with Pensacola Home Health Care for 20 years and has previously also funded hotels and motels in the USA. Rohan Desai (30), has 10 years of experience in stock trading and investment and provides stock advisory services at www.rdviews.com. Paras Patel (29), meanwhile, is a real estate investor and an MBA by qualification.
