Prodoc Signs MoU with AHPI as a DPDPA Implementation Partner

Prodoc AI and the Association of Healthcare Providers (India) [AHPI] signed a Memorandum of Understanding at the 4th AHPI Leadership Summit 2026 in Jaipur, establishing Prodoc as a DPDPA Implementation Partner.

The partnership marks an important step towards supporting hospitals as they prepare for the requirements of India’s Digital Personal Data Protection framework.

For hospitals, DPDPA readiness goes beyond documentation. It brings greater focus to areas such as patient consent, responsible handling of personal data, governance, security and organisational accountability.

Through the partnership, Prodoc and AHPI aim to support healthcare organisations as they work towards stronger data protection practices and responsible digital transformation.

    This month also brings new improvements designed to give hospital teams greater visibility and flexibility.

    Campaign & Ad Visibility: Hospital marketing teams can now see Campaign Name and Ad Name directly within Lead Management, along with dedicated filters.

    This makes it easier to understand where leads are coming from and connect individual enquiries with the campaigns and advertisements that generated them.

    Flexible Licensing: Prodoc’s licensing experience has also been enhanced to give hospitals greater flexibility over platform access.

    Hospitals can manage user licenses, module access and subscription plans according to their requirements.

    As teams grow or requirements change, licenses can be managed more flexibly instead of relying on a one-size-fits-all setup.
