1. PROBLEM
I. Fragmented Health Records
Many individuals in Cameroon struggle with scattered health information across different providers and facilities. This fragmentation can lead to inefficiencies, errors in care, and difficulties in accessing comprehensive health data.
II. Limited Patient Empowerment
Patients often lack control over their health information, which diminishes their ability to participate actively in their care. Mi-HEALTH aims to empower patients by giving them easy access to their health records, enabling informed decisions regarding their health.
III. Poor Continuity of Care:
The absence of a centralized health record can hinder effective communication between healthcare providers, leading to lapses in care and potential medical errors. Mi-HEALTH would facilitate better collaboration among providers and a more seamless care experience for patients.
