Our goal is to digitalize 200 healthcare facilities by 2022. Beginning with five healthcare facilities in Accra by building a health payment infrastructure (Health PIN) capable of accepting electronic money from platforms such as mobile money, e-cards and payment aggregators.
Leading to improved efficiencies for managing financial operations by increasing access to accurate, aggregated, real time data for analysis and access to financing. With programs such as Cash advance and NHIS receivables taking the financial pressures from healthcare providers and ultimately resulting in a reduction in waiting time and increase in patient satisfaction.

Ghana is taking major strides towards achieving its Universal Health Coverage (UHC) 2030 agenda including achieving quality health for all, as 35 medical professionals have been trained and certified under a global health quality improvement program: SafeCare. To implement the program, PharmAccess is partnering with the Christian Health Association of Ghana (CHAG), a network of over 300 health provider organizations in the country.
“The SafeCare certification will inspire confidence in patients that they would receive standardized quality of care at CHAG facilities.”
