iCHA Model addresses barriers to make diabetes management reach last mile
Chronicle Pharmabiz
|November 27, 2025
THE iCHA Model is addressing barriers like lack of regular screening, limited access to specialists, and limited lifestyle awareness to make diabetes management reach last mile.
iKure Community Health Activists (iCHAs) are community-based women health workers, who are redefining how diabetes is detected, managed, and prevented in rural India. Apart from urban centres, rural India is witnessing a silent epidemic, often undiagnosed until complications arise.
"As India continues to battle the rising tide of diabetes affecting over 100 million adults today, iKure's model demonstrates inclusive health innovation. Through its women-led, tech-enabled approach, iKure has touched 36 million population and treated over 4.5 million patients across 11 states of India and more than 6,400 villages, roving that real change begins at the community level," informs Sujay Santra, founder & CEO, iKure Techsoft Pvt. Ltd.
