Day #10 India’s Elderly: The Forgotten Healthcare Demographic They Took Care of You. Now It's Time We Take Care of Them. Most health platforms today are built for digital natives. But what about those who don’t know what an OTP is? In India, over 140 million elderly citizens often face: –> Long walks to the pharmacy –> Confusion about prescriptions –> App fatigue and tech hurdles –> Zero post-delivery guidance That’s exactly who MDW is building for. We made a platform that works without needing to install anything. No app. No sign-up. Just send a WhatsApp text and get your medicines in 20 minutes. Our WhatsApp-first model makes it simple for the elderly to: –> Reorder medicines regularly –> Ask questions and get real answers (not bots) –> Get doorstep service from a Dawai Dost they trust Because healthcare shouldn’t feel like a maze. And your parents shouldn’t need to call you every time they need medicine. This is our fight, for accessible, dignified care. If you have parents living alone or elders who struggle with tech MDW is for them. We’re not just health-first. We’re parent-first. This is Day #10 of our 12-week journey and we’re just getting started. Follow along and let’s rebuild healthcare for the ones who built us.

Day #9 20 Minutes Isn’t a Gimmick. It’s a Commitment. Everyone talks about “fast delivery.” But in healthcare, fast is not enough, it has to be accurate, safe, and human-first. At MDW, 20-minute medicine delivery isn’t a flashy promise. It’s a syst

Day #6 Tech That Listens, Not Just Tracks. Let’s be honest most healthtech feels like a maze: 1- Too many steps. 2- Chatbots that don’t understand you. 3- And endless screens when all you needed was help. At MDW, we do things differently. Our beli
