Swasthya Pahal ("Health for all"), our community initiative utilizes SMAART™ framework, aims to promote self-management among individuals about diabetes, hypertension, obesity and high cholesterol. Swasthya Pahal utilizes interactive multi-lingual, touch screen computer program that gathers data related to social-demographics, clinical history, and health behaviors.
In addition, objective data gathered includes height, weight, blood pressure, and blood sugar. An evidence based decision rule engine then generates a SMAART™ health card for each individual.
