BREAKING NEWS! Babylon Health just announced that Rwanda will be the world's most advanced country for digital health! We analyzed Rwanda's digital health efforts and policies before and it seemed like it's Wakanda but for real. This announcement further confirms this (how many people mocked me when I told Rwanda would be a digital health country...!): https://lnkd.in/dnwswBU Here are the facts: * 10-year partnership between Babyl (Babylon’s service in Rwanda) and the Government of Rwanda to build Africa’s first universal primary care service, using a digital-first approach * People in rural villages through to largest cities in Rwanda will be able to have a consultation with a doctor or nurse within minutes over their mobile phone through the country’s national health service * Medical staff will be aided by Babylon’s Artificial Intelligence-powered triage & symptom checker platform * Every consultation will be paid for through the government’s community-based health insurance scheme known as Mutuelle de Santé, which is managed by the Rwandan Social Security. #themedicalfuturis#themedicalfuturis#themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #fromchancetochoice
