MYDAWA has announced its partnership with Sanlam General Insurance to provide its medical cover policy holders with access to quality, convenient and affordable healthcare products on its portal.
The partnership also aims at eliminating insurance fraud; experienced by customers and insurance providers in the region. The move is highly beneficial to the insurer as it will lead to significant savings; as the MYDAWA e-health solution removes fraudulent and illegitimate claims; which have been an issue for the health Insurance industry and contributing to the losses to date. This will create an opportunity for growth that will facilitate for both higher profitability and stronger customer relations.
Speaking during the announcement, MYDAWA Managing Director, Tony Wood said that the use of technology in the provision of high quality and affordable healthcare through innovations such as MYDAWA will go a long way in ensuring that the highest quality medication is more accessible to Kenyans.
