WHY is mHealth important?

Mobile phones reach further into developing countries than other technology & health infrastructures...

HOW is it used?

Remote Diagnostics/Surveillance Disease/Epidemic Tracking Temporary Communities DIY Check Up Distance Learning SMS Consultation Remote Data Analysis mHealth Wellness Tracking Handheld Hospital Education & Awareness Remote Diagnostics/Surveillance Supply Chain

The number of clinics running out of medicine was reduced from 90% to 6% during the 5-month pilot in September 2009. Due to its success, the program is now being rolled out to all 5000 health facilities across Tanzania.

Transmission times that previously took from 2 to 3 months were reduced to an average of 2 minutes...64,800 times faster than the paper-based system.

Since 2005, India’s National Rural Health Mission has trained and deployed 750,000+ Accredited Social Health Activists (i.e. Community Health Workers) to provide life saving interventions for their communities.
