Telemedicine has emerged as a game-changer in the healthcare industry, transforming the way healthcare providers reach people in rural areas. At Healthconnect247, we leverage innovative solutions like these to bridge healthcare gaps and ensure inclusive, sustainable access for every community.
Rural areas are often faced with certain challenges when it comes to accessing healthcare services, such as shortages of healthcare practitioners and limited healthcare facilities and resources, which ultimately lead to poor health outcomes in these areas.
Below are some of the ways HealthConnect247 is reimagining and improving access to healthcare in these remote areas:
Access to 24/7 toll-free medical consultations via our telemedicine services
24/7 access to a doctor via our toll-free lines ensures that patients can easily connect with a healthcare provider at any time without incurring any extra charges. This simply means that with or without airtime, you can consult with a doctor and get the best primary health care and attention for your health.
A key advantage of the toll-free line is its accessibility to patients regardless of their location, literacy level or financial status. Our experts offer medical consultation across the major languages spoken in Nigeria, which includes Pidgin, Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa. This is especially important in a country like Nigeria, where access to healthcare services is severely limited among low-income populations. By providing a toll-free line, we’ve ensured that patients can receive medical advice and support without worrying about incurring extra consultation cost.
The Healthconnect247 app also provides one of the most unique, seamless and rewarding experiences for its users. It’s a fully equipped platform where patients can connect with doctors almost in minutes via the Voice and Video In app features.
One of the key benefits of using the HC247 app is that it allows patients to connect with their healthcare providers anytime, anywhere. This is particularly important in a country like Nigeria, where access to quality healthcare can be a challenge, especially in rural areas. With the HC247 app, patients no longer must travel long distances to see a doctor or wait for hours in a crowded waiting room. They can simply open the app and connect with their healthcare provider right away.

Deployment of Virtual booths
Our Virtual booth clinics are mini healthcare facilities that provide remote consultations with healthcare professionals through video conferencing technology. These clinics are designed to address the challenges of accessing healthcare services remotely.
A virtual booth clinic typically comprises a small booth or kiosk equipped with video conferencing technology, a computer, and medical instruments. Patients can enter the booth and connect with a healthcare professional through the video conferencing software. The healthcare professional can then conduct remote consultation, using medical equipment to perform primary care examinations, such as measuring blood pressure or listening to heart and lung sounds.
These Virtual clinic booths are a reliable solution to rural healthcare challenges that often go unnoticed by people living in urban areas. They help address the shortage of healthcare professionals in rural areas by connecting patients with doctors and specialists from other parts of the country. This means that people living in rural areas can access the same level of care as those living in urban areas while skipping the cost of transportation and the stress of long wait times.

Set-up of Basic Health Testing Centers (BHTC)
The BHTC is our latest innovation to ensure healthcare reaches not just urban areas but also rural areas. It is a walk-in center designed for people within Nigeria to get access to essential health tests. This center has test kits for several illnesses like Malaria, HIV, STIs, Diabetes, and Hepatitis etc. This testing center can also be tailored to a particular type of test. There are also professionals stationed at each testing center to effectively carry out these tests and results are interpreted by a doctor virtually. The BHTC aims to bridge the gap in healthcare accessibility by offering quick, reliable testing and virtual consultations with doctors.
