Ananya Rao

I am a 13-year digital health and public policy analyst based in Bengaluru, with experience across health technology, patient access, medical regulation, and public-sector innovation. My work focuses on explaining how telemedicine platforms, electronic health records, AI diagnostics, insurance models, and government health schemes affect doctors, patients, hospitals, and startups in India. I have previously worked with healthcare consulting teams, nonprofit research groups, and editorial desks covering health policy and technology adoption. I write practical, evidence-led stories that connect policy decisions with everyday outcomes, especially in preventive care, rural health delivery, data privacy, women’s health, and affordable digital tools. My goal is to make complex healthcare and technology developments clear, useful, and relevant for professionals and general readers alike.
