Overview
A live case / systems-research challenge from Ambula for B-school teams (typically 3–5 students). Build portfolio-ready skills: primary research, stakeholder mapping, applied health-policy & Indian regulatory literacy, and consulting-style pilot design. Ambula gains ethically collected campus ground truth and testable pilot thinking — without mandatory petitions, forced demos, or “close the sale” incentives. Complete submissions earn a participation certificate recognising Campus Healthcare Systems Research. Winning team(s) receive ₹2,000 cash and Ambula merchandise. Optional Ambula mentorship office hours on digital health / ABDM framing may be offered after research, not as the core task.
The brief
Residential campuses often face a real gap between 10 PM and 6 AM: limited or no on-site MBBS doctors, reliance on paramedics or wardens for triage (and sometimes Schedule-H medicines), and resulting questions of statutory compliance, student safety, institutional liability, and practical care delivery.
This is a learning challenge for B-school / management students, run by Ambula (Ambula Technologies) — a Wooble partner and ABDM-aligned health-tech company. It is not a sales campaign, petition drive, or product pitch contest.
Your team researches the gap on your own campus, maps knowledge–attitude–practice (KAP) and operational realities, and designs a practical, legally grounded, student-centric digital solution pathway (tele-triage / e-prescription / kiosk or app-based access) that a university could pilot.
Ambula’s ABDM-aligned teleconsultation + PHR capabilities may be referenced as one possible enabling platform — not a mandatory product. Non-Ambula and multi-vendor pathways are explicitly allowed.
Sprint shape (about 2–4 weeks):
- Diagnostic audit — night protocol map, light KAP survey (target 80–150 residential students), optional short staff interviews; ethical research only (informed consent, anonymised data, no covert “gotcha” logging of individuals).
- Solution design & business case — analyse findings against the legal framework neutrally (e.g. Pharmacy Act Sec 42, Drugs & Cosmetics Rule 65, NMC / telemedicine guidelines, liability context); design a compliant night pathway; build a short 30-day pilot proposal with metrics, risks, and change-management notes for DSW/Principal.
- Synthesis & pitch — report or deck + short presentation; optional one-page executive brief for campus admin.
Deliverables
- Anonymised Campus Health Access Snapshot (data + night-protocol / access maps)
- Legal & operational risk summary (neutral, cited)
- Pilot blueprint + high-level business case (30-day, 1–2 hostels)
- Presentation: 8–12 page report or structured slide deck + 5–7 min pitch (link or upload notes)
Evaluation criteria
- Rigour & ethics of research (30%)
- Quality of insight + regulatory grounding (25%)
- Practicality & creativity of proposed pathway (25%)
- Clarity of communication & portfolio-ready presentation (20%)
Frequently asked questions
Who is running this challenge?
Ambula (Ambula Technologies), a Wooble partner and ABDM-aligned health-tech company. Wooble hosts the challenge; Ambula owns the brief, review, and prizes.
Who should apply?
Primarily B-school / management students (MBA, PGDM, and related programmes). Teams of 3–5. Other students are welcome if they can deliver a management-quality research case.
Do we have to pitch or sell Ambula’s product?
No. Recommend what your evidence supports. Ambula’s teleconsultation + PHR stack is one illustrative ABDM-ready option. Non-Ambula and multi-vendor pathways are allowed.
Are petitions, street plays, or “closing a pilot” required?
No. This is student-led systems research and pilot design only — not advocacy recruitment or a success-fee sales playbook.
What research ethics apply?
Informed consent, anonymised data, and no covert logging of individual medicine hand-outs or naming of staff. Describe roles and patterns, not people. No medical records or student PII in submissions.
Must we visit the dispensary at 2 AM?
No. Daytime protocol mapping plus student interviews / a KAP survey is enough. Any night observation must stay safe and legal.
What do winners receive?
₹2,000 cash and Ambula official merchandise for the winning team, plus podium merch for 2nd and 3rd. All complete submissions receive a Campus Healthcare Systems Research participation certificate.
