Hello Shastho is a Bangla-first telehealth and chronic-care platform that I designed and developed. It connects patients, doctors, clinical pharmacists and diagnostic services in one workflow: a video consultation, a prescription that a pharmacist must review before the patient receives it, a digital health locker for records and planned follow-up care.

Why I built it
Healthcare in Bangladesh is often fragmented. A patient sees a doctor in one place, does tests somewhere else, gets a prescription separately and then loses track during follow-up. That is hardest for people with long-term conditions such as diabetes and hypertension. I wanted one place where the whole journey is connected and the patient's history stays organised.
The care workflow
Patient registration → doctor consultation → prescription → clinical pharmacist review → verified prescription → health locker → follow-up. Every step has a responsible person. A prescription is not released until a clinical pharmacist has reviewed it, and the system enforces this rule.
Key features
- Bangla-first screens, messages and notifications.
- Scheduled and on-demand video consultations, at least 15 minutes each.
- BMDC registration checks for doctors.
- A digital health locker for prescriptions, reports and documents.
- Diagnostic test booking with home sample collection.
- Chronic-care plans, membership and family plans, and corporate health plans.
- A seven-day follow-up after each consultation.
- Separate workspaces for patients, doctors, pharmacists and administrators.
Security built into the architecture
- Role-based access scoped to the care relationship.
- Append-only audit logs for every access to health records.
- Short-lived links for sensitive documents.
- Data hosted in Bangladesh on BDIX-connected infrastructure.
What I learned
A healthcare platform is not a marketplace. Patients trust it with their health history, so verification, privacy and follow-up have to be part of the product from the start. I also learned that being Bangla-first is more than translation: it affects how people read medical information, fill in forms and respond to notifications.
Building a healthcare product?
I'm happy to talk with doctors, clinics and health-tech teams about Hello Shastho or a similar platform.
