ASC better Health Kare

Universal access to health care is a real problem in Africa and particularly in Chad. 48% Chadians live in extreme poverty and can't afford even low costs of health care. As a result, they turn to street doctors and dream sellers, thus jeoperdizing their health and shortening their life expenctancy. Besides, traditional measurement of primary health care performance does not take into account feedback form users. .

Our solution is an IT application both web-based and mobile (uploadable on smartphones)  that will leverage existing health statistics and take into account users' feedback to provide comprehensive and efficient mesurement of primary health care performance in a dynasmic way (add and remove indicators based on users' feedback). Besides, the application will allow users to register to a community health insurance offering a pack of services and aiming to improve access to health care for universal coverage. After development and testing in Chad for six months, the solution will target seven countries in Central and West Africa including Cameroon, CAR, Chad, Congo, DRC, Nigeria and Niger for five years. A third phase will allow scaling up the solution to the whole Africa.

Our solution will serve Africans in low and middle income countries including the poor, illiterate, remote and difficult to access populations both in urban and rural areas. that's the reason why the solution combines the IT application with community radios and a green line. these populations will become active stakeholders of primary health care measurement. They will have financial access to helath care despite their low income with longer life expectancy and increased capacity of production resulting from their improved health condition.

Our team is made of development professionals  devoted to solving problems linked to health and poverty in their respective areas of qualification. For years, we have been working  with community members and striving to solve their problems. Actually, we are members of these communities and our solution is an african solution designed for Africans.

We never succeed getting a financing for our our organization though we have concepts for the development of I|T applications devoted to solving health problems in favor of our beneficiaries. A grant from MIT Solve would be a great start up for us.
