Fractal's Vaidya.ai powers WhatsApp health chatbot for Mumbai's municipal corporation
Fractal's Vaidya.ai runs a WhatsApp-based health chatbot for the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) in Mumbai. An analysis says the most defensible hospital bots handle logistics and navigation and do not perform symptom triage (Aug. 13–14).
Who is affected and how
- hospital manager
- Limit the chatbot to logistics and navigation, without symptom triage or medical advice.
- health IT
- Data protection and escalation rules for the WhatsApp channel must be planned in advance.
