Access to testing is essential to good healthcare, it can mean early detection and life-saving treatments. Though women comprise 70% of the global health workforce, many women & girls do not have adequate access to diagnostic tests and screenings – widening the gender gap even further in healthcare.
At My Doctor, we are deliberately creating programs targeted at ensuring a gender-equal approach. This kind of world requires women-centric solutions focused on ensuring equal access to care. We have drawn programs for creating access to free HIV testing in various communities. Also through our God Mother division, we are emphasizing access to maternity services from Antenatal, Childbirth, and Postpartum leveraging telemedicine (both voice and video calls). Our experience shows that voice calls are more effective as most women don’t have smartphones.
We are offering high-quality voice communication, counseling, and education every day, as well as text messaging tips and reminders.
By providing women with the knowledge, tools, and support they need to have safe and healthy pregnancies and childbirth experiences. Our program has the potential to reduce healthcare costs associated with pregnancy and childbirth complications among many other benefits. By promoting maternal and infant health, this program can also contribute to increased workforce productivity and reduced healthcare costs in the long run.
