Imagine walking into a full health facility – except the facility is software, and the neighbourhood is the network.
AfyaMesh is not an EHR with a patient portal bolted on, and it is not a telehealth app that tries to grow into a clinical system. It is a mesh – a set of provider workflow modules and a consumer app that share a single data layer, identity system, and standards stack from day one.
The architecture is deliberately patient-first. The Patient app is a first-class surface, not a sub-feature of a provider module, because the commercial moat – a patient audience providers want access to – and the public-health value – a longitudinal record and population-level data – both depend on solving patient problems directly and letting providers benefit from being on the network where those patients already are.
Six modules. One mesh.
Each organisation installs only the modules it needs. Modules route requests to one another over the shared mesh rather than duplicating each other's responsibilities.
Pharmacy
The pharmacist's SaaS – inventory, batch tracking, expiry alerts, supplier ordering, dispensing, mobile-money POS. Receives orders from Patient and from on-network prescribers.
Patient
The consumer-facing app at the centre of the mesh. Search and order medications, book consultations, view results, hold a longitudinal record. Mobile-first with web mirror.
Clinic
Encounter-workflow module for hospitals, clinics, and primary care providers. Captures vitals, history, examination, diagnoses, and routes orders out to other modules.
Telehealth
Chat, voice, and video consultations. AI-assisted triage. In-consult e-prescriptions and orders. Browser-based provider portal plus mobile clinician experience.
Diagnostics
Lab and imaging module for standalone diagnostic centres and clinic-affiliated labs. Routes test requests to the nearest approved facility with capacity.
Billing & Admin
Invoicing, receipts, and multi-rail payment processing across the mesh. Per-organisation admin console for users, permissions, subscriptions, and module configuration.
