New Delhi, July 25, 2026: Wockhardt Foundation, the humanitarian arm of Wockhardt Ltd., has announced that its flagship Mobile1000 programme has surpassed 50 million patient interactions, reaching 51.1 million during the first half of 2026. The milestone highlights the growing role of technology-enabled mobile healthcare in improving access to primary healthcare services for underserved communities across India.

The programme currently operates through 211 Mobile Medical Units (MMUs) across 21 states, nearly 73 districts and around 2,919 villages. Based on the Foundation's ADCR (Awareness, Diagnosis, Cure and Referral) model, Mobile1000 provides free doctor consultations, diagnostic services, branded generic medicines, preventive health screenings, community awareness programmes and referral support. Digital patient records and point-of-care diagnostics are also integrated into the service delivery model.

The Foundation said the initiative complements India's expanding primary healthcare network by extending medical consultations and diagnostic services to remote and underserved regions where access to healthcare remains limited.

Commenting on the milestone, Dr. Huzaifa Khorakiwala, CEO, Wockhardt Foundation, said, "Reaching 50 million patient interactions reflects the scale of India's need for accessible primary healthcare. Across many parts of the country, delayed diagnosis is often a consequence of distance rather than disease. Mobile healthcare demonstrates that when consultations, diagnostics and referrals are taken closer to communities, healthcare becomes more timely, more preventive and more equitable. As India continues to strengthen its primary healthcare ecosystem, innovative community-based delivery models can play an important role in complementing existing health infrastructure and ensuring that quality healthcare is not determined by geography."

Ajay Somvanshi, Chief Operating Officer, Wockhardt Foundation, said, "Improving healthcare access requires long-term collaboration rather than isolated interventions. Governments, healthcare providers, corporate CSR programmes and local communities each have a role to play in strengthening last-mile healthcare delivery. Mobile1000 has shown that partnerships, supported by technology, can improve continuity of care and expand access to primary healthcare at scale. As we move towards our vision of 1,000 Mobile Medical Units, our focus will remain on building stronger collaborations that help more underserved communities access quality healthcare closer to home."

Building on this milestone, the Foundation plans to expand the programme towards its goal of 1,000 Mobile Medical Units, while strengthening digital diagnostics, telemedicine capabilities and partnerships with governments and corporate CSR organisations to improve last-mile healthcare delivery across rural and urban India.
