Company Description

CAPSIC (Creating an Accessible Primary System with Intelligence and Care) is an early-stage health tech startup committed to decentralizing primary healthcare delivery in India. We envision a pharmacy-first ecosystem where local pharmacies act as assisted telemedicine hubs—connecting patients to doctors, diagnostics, and medicines in semi-urban and rural areas. CAPSIC is working at the intersection of healthcare, technology, and community to improve access, affordability, and efficiency in the healthcare delivery system.
