At a time when Covid-19 was at an all-time high in India in November 2020, SpiceHealth, under the leadership of Avani Singh, disrupted the Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) testing space by offering tests in mobile laboratories at Rs. 499, as opposed to the then existing rate of Rs. 2400 in Delhi and helped bring down Covid-19 testing cost dramatically across the country.
SpiceHealth was also the first to introduce the innovative concept of mobile testing laboratories that could be placed in remote areas, in containment zones, in villages where access to hospitals and medical facilities was and remains a challenge.
Avani Singh, CEO, SpiceHealth, said, “I am extremely happy that SpiceHealth has been selected as the Gold Stevie® Winner in the prestigious 2021 Asia Pacific Stevie Awards for the Most Valuable Medical Innovation under Covid-19 response category. SpiceHealth was founded with the vision of introducing innovative healthcare solutions aimed at serving the masses and I am happy that we have been recognised for our efforts and contributions in these very difficult times. I dedicate this award to all our frontline workers who have been fighting tooth and nail to beat the worst ever pandemic in human history.”
“The eighth edition of the Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards attracted many remarkable nominations,” said Stevie Awards president Maggie Gallagher. “The organizations that won this year have demonstrated that they have continued to innovate and succeed despite the COVID-19 pandemic, and we applaud them for their perseverance and creativity. We look forward to celebrating many of this year’s winners during our virtual awards ceremony on 14th July’21.”

Since its launch in November 2020, SpiceHealth has conducted more than 2.2 million RT-PCR tests and has spread its operations across fives states – Delhi, Haryana, Maharashtra, Kerala, Uttarakhand.
