Health Outreach Initiatives

Access to quality and affordable healthcare is critical for improving overall health, identifying preventable diseases, and managing existing medical conditions. Through prompt, reliable and quality healthcare early diagnosis and intervention, can significantly improve treatment outcomes and save lives.

Reliance Foundation’s Health Outreach initiatives aim to achieve this by providing access to medical care, particularly for vulnerable communities which make a positive difference in the lives of millions.

Through Mobile Medical Units (MMUs), Static Medical Units (SMUs), Community Health Centres (CHCs), and periodic health camps across states including Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, the programme has facilitated over 8.1 million consultations, benefiting vulnerable patients.

The Health Outreach programme is an optimal, cost-effective, high-quality replicable working model to provide an all–encompassing preventive and primary healthcare care.

It complements the available secondary and tertiary systems for low-resource clients (urban slum and chawl dwellers as well as the rural population) by providing free primary and preventive health care services at the doorstep of the needy.

The programme has a pyramid design. At the base, a team of health workers and nurses provide preventive health screening in the community. A unique, community engagement initiative, designed based on community needs, it enables promotive and preventive health and disease detection, especially for Non-Communicable Diseases at people’s homes.

The door-to-door health service is followed by camps in the same communities- focusing on high risk individuals for diagnosis confirmation, education and treatment initiation; all this leads to minimal loss to follow-up and maximal coverage.

Medical Mobile Units

The Medical Mobile Units, equipped with advanced technology, including cloud-based software for efficient patient management, bring essential healthcare services to the doorstep of beneficiaries, addressing their medical needs.

These are equipped with all essential medicines and point-of-care devices for quality primary care services. Static Medical Units complement the MMUs, offering diagnostic and consultation services focusing on chronic conditions like hypertension and diabetes. Skilled doctors, nurses, and social workers play a crucial role in providing primary medical care to patients in need, with focused initiatives for vulnerable groups.

These units have been vital in providing crucial healthcare support during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic, especially in rural India

Sir H.N. Reliance Health Outreach Programme - Delivering Free, Preventive and Curative Healthcare Since 2012

Since its inception in 2012, the Sir H.N. Reliance Health Outreach Programme has been committed to extending high-quality, free healthcare services to underserved and vulnerable communities. Anchored in the philosophy of early detection, prevention, and continuity of care, the programme has evolved into a large-scale community health intervention addressing both immediate medical needs and long-term health outcomes.

Scale and Reach

Over the past decade, the programme has emerged as a vital healthcare lifeline for lakhs of individuals who otherwise face significant barriers to access.

  • 8,00,000+ total consultations delivered across community settings
  • 6,80,000+ unique patients reached through sustained outreach
  • Services provided completely free of cost, reducing out-of-pocket healthcare expenditure for families in need

This expansive reach reflects the programme’s focus on accessibility, trust-building, and regular follow-up within communities.

Over the past decade, our healthcare outreach programme has served as a vital lifeline, delivering free health awareness, screenings and consultations to patients in community settings, eliminating out-of-pocket costs and building lasting trust through accessible, follow-up care for underserved families.

Focus on Women’s Health and Child Nutrition

Recognising women and children as key determinants of community health, the programme places strong emphasis on early screening and sustained care in these groups.

Women’s Health – Anaemia Screening and Management

  • 1,00,000+ women screened for anaemia
  • 46% identified as anaemic, highlighting the magnitude of the public health challenge
  • 7% year-on-year cure rate achieved through systematic follow-up, counselling, and treatment

The approach prioritises continuity of care rather than one-time screening, enabling measurable improvement in health outcomes.

This programme has empowered over 100,000 women through anaemia screening, identifying 46% as anaemic and achieving a 7% year-on-year cure rate via sustained counselling, treatment, and follow-up care—strengthening maternal and community health from the ground up.

Child Nutrition and Growth Monitoring

  • 50,000+ children under five years screened for malnutrition
  • 8% identified as malnourished and enrolled into targeted nutritional interventions
  • Regular monitoring and referral ensure gradual improvement in nutritional status and developmental outcomes

Our programme screens children under five for malnutrition, so far has enrolled 8% into targeted interventions with regular monitoring, thus driving steady gains in nutrition, growth, and brighter futures for vulnerable young lives.

Annual Impact Highlights | FY 2024–2025

Each year, the programme delivers healthcare services at scale, reaching lakhs of beneficiaries across multiple interventions. In FY 2024–2025 alone:

  • 2,57,500+ free consultations conducted

  • 1,20,000+ individuals screened across health parameters
  • 50,000+ women screened for anaemia
  • 10,495+ children under five screened for malnutrition

In addition, all adults aged 18 years and above are routinely screened for non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including diabetes and hypertension. Individuals diagnosed with these conditions are enrolled into ongoing management pathways, ensuring long-term monitoring and adherence to treatment.

Outreach Impact Highlights | FY 2025–2026 (Apr’25–Dec’25)

Over the last two years, our programme delivered more than 4,00,500+ consultations, enrolled 1,00,000+ new families, and carried out 2,40,000+ screenings for critical health risks, while tackling anaemia in 100,000+ women and malnutrition in 15,000+ children, proving preventive care at scale saves lives and halts NCD epidemics before they devastate communities.

Teleconsultation and Community Cancer Screening

  • 2,800+ patients received teleconsultations and specialist guidance in the past year
  • Patients requiring further evaluation are seamlessly linked to in-person consultations

Under the Community Cancer Initiative, close to 1,00,000 individuals are screened annually for common cancers, enabling early detection and timely referral for diagnostic confirmation and treatment.

The Teleconsultation program bridged access gaps by delivering teleconsultations with seamless specialist referrals. The AI enabled screening program screened and counselled people for common cancers, unlocking early detection to save lives where distance and mobility once stood in the way.

Health Seva Plan: A Decade of Compassionate Care

Launched on 25 October 2024 to commemorate 10 years of sustained community service, the Health Seva Plan represents a significant expansion of preventive and specialised care.

Key Interventions under the Health Seva Plan

  • 36,000+ women screened for breast and cervical cancer
  • 59 high-risk women identified and supported through further investigations and treatment pathways
  • 10,000+ adolescent girls administered the HPV vaccine, strengthening cervical cancer prevention
  • 50,000+ children screened for cardiac conditions
  • ~80 children supported with life-saving cardiac surgeries

This initiative reinforces the programme’s commitment to early diagnosis, advanced care linkage, and life-saving interventions for vulnerable populations.

The Health Seva Plan has screened women for breast and cervical cancer, identifying and aiding high-risk cases, vaccinated adolescent girls against HPV, screened children for cardiac risks, and enabled life-saving surgeries for the identified cardiac patients, delivering early detection and advanced care that safeguards vulnerable futures.
