Mumbai: Fortis Hospitals Mumbai, the city’s largest hospital network, has rolled out its innovative ‘#FirstCallFortis’ campaign, spotlighting the critical importance of swift action during medical emergencies. With a focus on its emergency helpline number, 022-4111 4111, the campaign introduces India’s first CGI-based digital engagement initiative in healthcare, marking a new era of community-centric healthcare awareness.

This campaign is our promise to Mumbaikars that medical aid is just a call away.”
The campaign employs a slice-of-life narrative to create relatable messaging across diverse platforms, including:
- Digital Engagement: CGI-based ads, a pioneering effort in Indian healthcare.
- Outdoor Media: Hoardings, lit boards, and pole kiosks across Mumbai.
- Cinemas: On-screen ads during popular films like Pushpa 2.
