A dedicated Telemedicine Room has been set up at Vedanta Lanjigarh Hospital for assisted consultations. Beneficiaries can also access free audio and video consultations through the Tata 1mg App with nearly 30 specialist and super-specialist doctors. The service is expected to benefit more than 70,000 people across nearly 70 remote villages in Kalahandi and adjoining regions.

Pranab Kumar Bhattacharyya, CEO, Vedanta Alumina Business, said Odisha remains central to Vedanta’s growth journey and that the service strengthens last-mile access to quality healthcare.
