FosterHealth AI partners with the National Cancer Grid of India and Koita Centre of Digital Oncology to research and develop AI-powered digital health solutions

Updated: Apr 18

We are thrilled to announce our R&D partnership with the National Cancer Grid of India (NCG), marking a significant step forward in healthcare innovation. We (FosterHealth AI operated by Oxalis Technologies) will work hand-in-hand with the esteemed NCG’s core team, research and co-develop AI-powered clinical intelligence applications. Our joint efforts aim to enhance health record digitisation and pave the way for uniform, evidence-based high-quality cancer care across India.

NCG: A network with 300+ cancer care centres treating over 70% of all cancer cases in India


The National Cancer Grid was created to unite cancer centres in India, including Tata Memorial Hospital, with a mandate which includes delivery of uniform and standard cancer care, and conducting multi-centric cancer research. In order to roll out standardised care, adopt and monitor use of evidence-based treatment guidelines, and understand treatment and outcomes, providers across NCG need to create and maintain digitised health records.


R&D partnership to enhance health record digitization using AI-powered software


Our partnership aims to leverage AI as a force multiplier and develop applications which enable comprehensive medical documentation without the need for additional manual effort from clinicians and medical staff. As part of this research and development project, we will experiment with different workflows (compare ambient conversation based clinical notes with dictation based clinical notes), clinical note templates to facilitate treatment outcomes research, different infrastructures (audio capture, cloud/GPU infrastructure for transcribing and note-generation), AI-safety and review systems, UI/UX systems, with a goal to find a viable solution that can scale across NCG centres.


We expect that enhancement of health record digitisation will improve cancer care delivery, enable benchmarking of clinical outcomes, track the effectiveness of different cancer control initiatives and advance cancer research.
