The core product surface is a technology-backed TPA platform that delivers cashless hospitalization processing, claims intimation and settlement, pre-authorization management, online beneficiary enrollment, and real-time portfolio visibility for insurers and brokers. Customers access services through a secured web portal, Android (v2.3+) and iOS (6.1+) mobile applications, WhatsApp-based health services, and specialized partner portals. Vidal Health reports a network of 12,000+ empaneled hospitals, diagnostic centers, and labs across 800+ cities in India, and covers 180+ million lives across government-sponsored schemes. A more recent digital HPV vaccine access platform was launched in partnership with Serum Institute of India in October 2025, extending the offering into preventive care delivery.

Vidal earns managed-services fees from insurance companies for claims administration, network management, and pre-authorization; from corporate clients for employee health benefit administration including online enrollment and cashless coordination; and from government bodies for large-scale scheme administration under AB-PMJAY and state programs. Named enterprise customers span Tata Steel, Accenture, Flipkart, Abbott India, LIC of India, Citibank, RPG Life Sciences, ACS India, Exide Industries, GMR Sports, and Canara HSBC Oriental Bank of Commerce Life Insurance, indicating diversified B2B distribution. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting insurers, corporate HR, and government buyers, supplemented by channel partners (brokers and agents) and self-service digital channels for individual policyholders. The company holds a Skoch Award for its government-scheme work and was previously funded by Ambit Pragma Ventures ($10M in 2016) before the 2024 acquisition by Bajaj Finserv Health.
