Uzima Health Uzima Health is an AI solution that helps patients & medical professionals in assisted diagnosis and mapping of patients to health facilities.
Uzima attempts to map a patient to a nearby facility/specialist based on the symptoms. A patient can enter their symptoms in their native language and using Machine Learning. Uzima is able to perform a look-up on the possible medical condition a patient is suffering from. In remote areas with limited medical facilities, Uzima links patients with registered community health workers nearest them who guides them as they wait to be taken to a medical facility.
Our competitive advantage is the use of AI to aid diagnosis hence saving time and patient’s lives.
In Africa 5000 patients share 1 doctor. In Tanzania 10,000 - 1 doctor, while the recommended ration is one doctor for every 300 patients. This extremely low access to health professionals leads to longer patient waiting time and overcrowding in health facilities.
