We are based in London and deliver services as well as accredited training through existing providers. Advatech works with ambulance services, hospitals, clinics and laboratories and ensures these services are readily and easily accessible. Our technology allows tracking of ambulances and logistics (eg pathology samples). Our Services also include mobile and web based medical consultations and the nationwide logistics model ensures fast and reliable diagnostic testing. Advatech was launched in 2005 when Mr Samit Biswas, CEO was exploring the opportunities of Medical Tourism for India. Having had 17 years experience in the healthcare industry Samit was well networked with all the major hospitals in India. During the process of moving patients, tissues and samples from one region to another, it became apparent that there were clear gaps in organizing efficient medical transport. There was a need to improve the co-ordination and quality of the ‘pick up’, safe transport and ‘drop off’ facility at all times. By 2014, a dedicated team of professionals had been recruited to run Advatech’s medical transport services. The service has now been increased with a number of technological innovations which run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We are now able to securely access the entire logistics pathway and patients’ movement online and through smart phones. We have introduced a business model TACIT (Technology, Administrative, Consultancy, Infrastructure and Training) on which we have built our healthcare services. TACIT services are now being expanded in the UK and there are clear long term economic benefits of delivering these TACIT services within the UK and to other countries eg India, Pakistan and countries within the middle-east. Over the past 3 years, we have created a successful ambulance service and training programme in Kolkata. Advatech has become a leader in providing air and road ambulance services within North-East India, where services have previously been lacking. The high quality internationally recognized training programme encompassing all stages of life saving training such as First Aid, Basic Life Support, Advanced Life Support, First Responder and Emergency Medical Technician courses. We aim to provide all of our clients with tracking and medical report data access on their mobile devices. We are clearly aware of the risks involved and have provisions in place to ensure adequate management of risks, hence services are delivered via a risk adverse model. At present, the focus of our business in the UK is in expanding an 'out of hours logistics service' for pathology samples to the NHS and independent sector. There is a UK wide requirement that is currently not being provided nationally; 24 hours a day; by any other company in a cost effective manner. Our model will be able to positively impact the 7 day working week currently being implemented in the NHS GP services. It will also make more effective use of the existing laboratories and pathology reporting teams, consequently dealing with workload and capacity issues that are inherent in all parts of the healthcare sector.
