Rajeshwar Tripathi, Chief Human Resource Officer – Auto & Farm Sectors, M&M Ltd., said, “The Practo partnership provides our employees and their families, access to a vast network of verified specialists and healthcare partners with great ease and convenience. This will empower our employees to take charge of their own health needs by proactively seeking preventive or corrective measures where necessary.”
Shikha Saxena, President, Practo, said, “Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, people have increasingly realized the need for health plans that are holistic, well-structured, more personalized and all-encompassing. Considering how specialities like mental health have also gained awareness, employees seek for a one-stop solution that is tailored to their needs. At Practo, we offer a comprehensive plan that includes online doctor consultation, in-person appointment booking facilities, express medicine deliveries, quality health check-ups, access to qualified psychological counsellors coupled with employee assistance programs and reliable health information.”
