Finding patients of Rare Diseases & giving families hope through diagnosis, expert advise, access to potential treatment and lifestyle enhancement.
Why RDCCC – Patients with rare diseases are large in numbers and remain undiagnosed for long
Over seventy million patients estimated to be affected with one of more than seven thousand rare diseases across India
Number increasing every year and it is estimated that 1 in 20 Indians is affected by a rare disease
In the US and EU, it takes about 5-7 years to diagnose a rare disease. Imagine in India!
Late diagnosis, subsequent delay in treatment and care only means small chance of survival and a poor quality of life for patients
RDCCC – A strong foundation of hope & integrated care for rare disease patients
First RDCCC in India starting at Bangalore, aims to build critical infrastructure to connect patients with rare diseases and healthcare providers, disease area medical experts, recognized diagnostic centers, genetic counselors, caregivers, treatment options, national and international clinical trials and funding options where feasible
National wide hotline #: +91 8892 555 000
RDCCC will staff dedicated team to answer patients’ phone calls about regional/national/international resources, healthcare specialists, networking opportunities, clinical trials and more
RDCCC – Streamlined working
RDCCC – A shared opportunity & responsibility for all the stakeholders
It will bring collective expertise and experience of rare disease specialists on one platform aiding increased awareness and understanding among patients and medical fraternity in India
Companies offering orphan drugs or other treatments for any rare disease can get patient access in India
More data on rare diseases can further aid research & development for big pharma and biotech companies in India
ORDI through RDCCC will also partner with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to ensure that certain vital medications are available to uninsured or under-insured individuals
Will help Hospitals to improve their reach to general public, enhancing corporate image in particular and perception of healthcare industry in general
Rapid diagnosis of rare diseases also means raising a collective voice for rare diseases leading to policy changes at the central and state government levels like incorporation of an Orphan Drugs Act, compassionate access programs through government for potential treatment, duty free import of certain orphan drugs, etc.
