MOBIKLINIC
MOBIKLINIC PROFILE:
Mobiklinic is an organization that uses a fusion of digital and physical
interventions to increase access to health care for all , especially last mile
health delivery in Uganda. Mobiklinic leverages on deploying trained
community members as Community Health Providers (CHPs) who offer
affordable home based health care in last mile villages and in case of need
for consultation, these community health workers use the mobiklinic digital
platform/ app to interface with senior medics thus creating a digital safety
net that ensures quality of services. It also offers an integrated referral
system. The app also enables scalable knowledge transfer to community
health workers. This makes access to healthcare decentralized and
kdemocratized. This solution is saving thousands of lives and has potential to
improve health access for millions of people in Uganda and sub Saharan
Africa.

2019 by Norvatis international /Sandoz Hack, beating over 600 entries across
