The second COVID wave did not create India’s out-of-hospital healthcare problem. It made it impossible to ignore. Dr. Kothari watched families coordinate oxygen, medicines, and equipment from WhatsApp groups and word of mouth — while he knew, from five years as an Army Medical Officer managing healthcare across remote posts along the Line of Actual Control, that organized out-of-hospital infrastructure was not just possible. It was a matter of operational will.
That infrastructure exists in the Army because lives depend on it. It should exist for every Indian family for the same reason. Hospit is that infrastructure — built for the home, not the hospital.
To serve every out-of-hospital healthcare need of Indian families from hyperlocal infrastructure assets — reliably, accountably, and at the moment it matters most.
To build resilient, technology-driven healthcare infrastructure assets for India.
Dr. Kothari, an MBBS graduate from the Armed Forces Medical College (AFMC), Pune, served as a medical officer in the Indian Army, leading advanced out-of-hospital medical services in field conditions. This experience gave him unique insight into healthcare delivery under resource constraints.
During the second COVID wave, Dr. Kothari worked as a frontline ICU doctor, which deepened his belief that the gap in India’s healthcare system lies not inside hospitals but outside them. He went on to build a telehealth team and founded a healthtech company, scaling healthcare services beyond the clinic. His experience in geriatric care exposed him to the challenges faced by elderly patients managing long-term health at home, an underserved segment.
Hospit is Dr. Kothari’s most personal venture, built around a problem he’s faced first-hand, serving families with healthcare challenges he understands from both sides of the doctor-patient relationship.
