Free health camps, on the record

A camp is a full clinic day carried to where people are — and unlike most camps, everything it finds is written to a health record the patient keeps.

The network has delivered 400+ free health camps across 20+ districts — in villages, schools, workplaces and mining colonies. At the camps, we record patients’ basic health vitals, provide free doctor consultations, conduct laboratory tests, distribute medicines and spectacles, create ABHA health accounts under the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM), and provide patients with a copy of their Patient Health Summary Report.

That last part is what makes these camps different: a screening that would normally end as a slip of paper becomes a permanent record — one the next doctor can read, and one the patient owns.

The camp day

A camp visit, step by step

From the registration desk to the report in hand — what a patient walks through at a ClinicWala camp.

  1. 01

    Register — and get an ABHA account

    Registration creates the patient’s ABHA health account under the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission, so everything the camp finds has a permanent home.

  2. 02

    Vitals recorded

    Basic health vitals — blood pressure, pulse, SpO₂, blood sugar, weight and more — captured with connected devices, straight onto the record.

  3. 03

    Free doctor consultation

    A consultation with a qualified doctor, in person or over video, at no cost to the patient.

  4. 04

    Laboratory tests

    Lab tests conducted at the camp, with reports that land on the same record.

  5. 05

    Medicines and spectacles

    Prescribed medicines dispensed and spectacles distributed where an eye check calls for them.

  6. 06

    A report to take home

    Every patient leaves with a copy of their Patient Health Summary Report — their numbers, findings and advice, in hand.

Why it matters

A camp that leaves something behind

Most health camps end when the tent comes down. Because every ClinicWala camp works on the network’s health record, the screening is still there at the next consultation — a doctor can see the trend, not just the day’s reading, and follow-up care has something to stand on.

And the data serves the community too: in Dhanbad, routine screenings of 1,878 citizens over 61 days became the district’s own health study — computed from camp-and-kiosk data, delivered to the administration, with no extra survey.
