SUNU Health Nigeria Limited has partnered with Mobihealth to deliver telehealth services to insurance beneficiaries.
In a statement, the company noted that SUNU Health had been providing health insurance products for over two decades in Nigeria and other African countries.
The statement quoted the Managing Director SUNU Health, Dr. Korie Patrick, as saying that the partnership would bring quality healthcare closer to the doorsteps of those who needed it in a timely and more affordable way.
He said, “The adoption of telemedicine and digital health tools has become imperative for care delivery thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Telemedicine is a very convenient solution that can solve many medical issues and will bridge the manpower shortages in hospitals. The cost of travelling to hospital and long waiting times with increased fuel price and the current economic situation of the country, makes the solution very timely. SUNU Health is committed to deliver value to our customers and leveraging on latest advances in digital health is the way to go. We are excited to partner with Mobihealth International, a multi-award-winning company with local and global reputation of excellence. SUNU beneficiaries will now have access to doctors in Nigeria and internationally from the comfort of their phones, Homes or workplaces anytime 24/7.”
According to the statement, the beneficiaries would also get medications, diagnostics and referrals where needed for face-to-face care in hospital.
Speaking about the partnership with SUNU Health, the Chief Executive Officer of Mobihealth, Dr Funmi Adewara, said it was a very exciting partnership she was proud of.
