During his tenure at Reliance General Insurance, Dr. Mishra has conceptualised and designed several innovative services like Go Fit (A technology enabled fitness program with gamification), Health-o-pedia (Post Claim Advisory), R HealthBeat (in-house Wellness magazine), Wellness Carnival (Corporate Wellness initiative), besides many more healthcare programs.
An alumnus of Hyderabad Public School, Dr. Mishra has pursued Emergency Medicine through Apollo Hospitals, Hyderabad and has found one of India's first healthcare portals, TotalHealthNeeds.com, back in 2008, which won multiple national accolades.
Commenting over this reshuffle in the board of directors team, Vikram Nair, Co-founder and CEO, PurpleHealth.com said, "Dr. Mishra has a great understanding of the healthcare domain, and brings in a rare combination of medical expertise and business acumen with a technology bent. His deep industry relationships will help accelerate our deployment, and his involvement will only strengthen our product design and roadmap."
Currently, the Healthcare delivery ecosystem operates through individual, independent and unconnected silos. PurpleHealth aims to build collaborative healthcare distribution models with a common customer pool through integrated technology.
