#StartupVsCovid19: Innovaccer Aims To Curb Panic In Goa With Self-Diagnosis App

SUMMARY

Delhi NCR-based Innovaccer has launched a self-assessment based app to screen for patients

The self-assessment test asks users to fill in a survey based on their symptoms

It also provides coronavirus-related updates to citizens in the state

With over 420 positive cases of coronavirus and the disease Covid-19, state governments across India are now looking to incorporate more technology-based solutions in their fights against the novel coronavirus. In one such attempt, Goa has now launched a mobile application which will help the citizens to carry out a self-assessment test for Covid-19. Delhi NCR-based healthtech company Innovaccer has developed this application for Goa state government.

Using Innovaccer’s platform, anyone in Goa can conduct a self-assessment test by filling a survey based on the symptoms they are going through. The application, named ‘Test Yourself Goa’, assists users to take the next step accordingly without having to physically visit a healthcare facility. The application will help the government to curb the coronavirus panic in the state as people will first test themselves with this before queuing up at already overburdened hospitals. “I appeal to all our citizens to make use of the application to the fullest and take necessary safety measures,” said Vishwajit Rane, minister for health, the government of Goa.
