Every time we visit a hospital or a specialist, we leave with a pile of reports, prescriptions, and test results. Over time, these papers get scattered, misplaced, or forgotten. The next time we go to a doctor, we either spend half the time digging through files or worse, repeating the same blood test or X-ray just because the doctor doesn’t have the full history. That’s the gap I’m trying to solve with this project. If we can manage our finances in apps, why not our health?
Right now, health records are a mess. Some hospitals are going digital, but even then reports are sent over WhatsApp or email. Later, when you actually need them, you’re scrolling endlessly through chats trying to find a “Blood Report – 16th June.pdf” (and of course, you never find it). Others still hand you bulky files, and if you visit multiple specialists, you end up carrying a mini-library of medical papers.
Governments have tried digital health ID systems, but hardly anyone uses them. They’re either too complicated, not user-friendly, or not trusted. What’s missing is a simple, clear, and personal way to keep all your health documents in one place, accessible whenever you or your doctor need them.
About the project:
Vaultem (meaning vault them) is basically a digital health document manager. It stores everything like test results, X-rays, prescriptions, hospital visit reports in one organized timeline. Each visit is linked to the hospital/doctor, with categories like dentist, eye, blood tests, heart, etc. Old papers can simply be scanned and uploaded. New reports can be directly added by doctors or labs.
For example: -if you visit a cardiologist, you’ll have the report saved under “Heart” with the date and doctor’s name. Next time you go to another specialist, you don’t have to dig through WhatsApp or shuffle papers, just open the app, and everything’s there in order.
Who Benefits-
Patients: No more lost reports, no more repeated tests, no more confusion about what happened when. One place to manage reports without mixing them up.
Doctors: Saves time, they can instantly see the patient’s medical history and avoid redoing the basics.
Community: Less medical waste, less duplication, and better informed treatments overall.
I’ve personally experienced how frustrating it is : once I went to a new dentist and I discovered that I had to carry a bag of documents from different dental hospitals because i took a treatment when i was 15 and they needed to check whether that could potentially affect the current ortho treatment iam going to take and it was so messed up, it took a while to arrange all of them in order of the date as they were from different clinics. It took the dentist some time to understand the history. Also the OPG X-ray (which is important to check the condition of the bone) that I had done 1 year earlier went missing. The doctor asked me to redo it (He referred me to another place for that) which wasted time, money, and honestly felt unnecessary.
Technical Touch
Scanning & Categorization: Old papers and reports can be digitized using the phone camera and tagged automatically (like “X-ray,” “Prescription”).
Timeline : Every visit is shown in order, making it super easy to track progress.
Doctor Uploads: Hospitals can upload official reports directly into the app with doctor verification.
Secure Storage: Encrypted, user-controlled access, way safer than random WhatsApp files.
Health is too important to be left to messy files and endless WhatsApp forwards. This app is not about reinventing healthcare, but about making life easier for both patients and doctors. It takes something people already do in a scattered, confusing way and makes it simple, digital, and reliable. In short: no more lost reports, no more repeat tests, and no more chaos, just clarity.
