Rural Health care is one of the biggest challenges faced by the Health Ministry of India. With more than 70percent people living in rural side integrated with low level health facilities, mortality rates due to diseases are on a high.The main cause for this augmented mortality rate is mainly due to the lack of finding a resource for medical facilities. Hence,the core idea of ‘Medicare’ is to overcome this problem by facilitating the rural people with an Android Application whichwill be made available in a Kiosk.The key feature of this Android application will be to get the symptoms of a person andpredict the possible diseases with the respective criticality level, fetch the location of the user & show the nearby doctor’slocation on Google Maps[1], Provide the location of specialist doctors for a critical disease. The patient’s details will bemade available on the Doctor’s Login.
