The main aims and objects of the trust are:

1. To promote education and provide financial help to the needy and/or deserving and meritorious students;
2. To provide medical aid to the needy at charitable basis or at no profit and no loss basis;
3. To finance various projects carrying research in the field of science either alone or in collaboration with government or non-government agencies;
4. To create consumer awareness on various issues especially medical services;
5. To take up consumer issues with the government.

During last two decades there has been significant and palpable transition in the delivery of medical services as a result of:

a. Advances in medical field and generic awareness about the same in the society;
b. Globalization;
c. Rapidly progressing economy and,
d. Increasing expectation of the society from the medical community.
Another major development, which has far reaching repercussions on the society, is that the medical services have become a “PRODUCT”and thus marketing gimmickry is taking over the honest projection of various facets of medical services.

In view of the aforementioned, the management of the trust decided to launch one stop portal aiming to create an educated consumer in the “market” of medical services. In 2007 “medguideindia.com” was launched, which provides following information to all it’s consumers free of any charge:

About the drugs,their composition, and comparative prices of various brands of the same composition, manufactured or marketed in India by various pharma companies.

The response of the society towards “medguideindia.com” has been very encouraging which has prompted the management to upgrade the existing web site. This upgraded version provides additional information on various aspects of immunization and Health Insurance.


ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS


The management of Vinod Kumar Memrial Charitable Trust has no words to express it’s gratitude to Ministry Of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, Government of India, for their generous help for the upgradation of the web site. The management is equally thankful to it’s staff members and others who have been associated with this project as without their dedication this project would have never seen the light of the day.
