Many Elderly people can not afford medical treatment or going to big cities for treatment, so "HelpAge India"- NGO for Elderly people launched Mobile Medicare Units in 1982. Every MMU has a qualified Doctor, a social worker, a pharmacit and many medicines that are given free of cost. In the year 2008-2009, 10 Lakh people were treated by MMU. Its working scope and area is increasing day by day.
