Hyderabad: Practo, a leading healthcare booking platform, and Uber, the world’s leading taxi-hailing firm, have announced a global partnership that will make it easier for consumers to reach doctors.

With this partnership, Practo users across India, Indonesia, Philippines and Singapore who book an appointment on Practo’s award-winning app will be able to see the closest Uber available when they get a reminder alert for their appointments with doctors. Users can then click the reminder notification and complete the booking process.

New users who book their first appointment on the Practo app can use the promotion code - UBERPRACTOIN to avail two free rides, up to Rs 200 per ride, with Uber. This offer is valid till December 31 this year.

In addition to viewing the estimated fare and how long it will take for the Uber to arrive, the driver’s app will be prefilled with the final destination’s address at the very beginning of the trip. The next phase of integration will involve notifying the user to request for an Uber, an hour prior to the appointment.
