International health technology provider, Vantage Health Technologies has teamed up with Nigeria’s Network for Health Equity and Development (NHED), a public health and development non-profit organisation committed to delivering high-impact public health interventions across Africa.
Vantage’s AI-powered solutions specifically help health organisations achieve cost and operational efficiencies, improved organisational performance and better health outcomes through “next best action” workflows to empower healthcare workers at all levels with deep experience in HIV, TB, malaria and other related diseases treatment and care.
NHED, in turn, specialises in delivering high-impact public health advocacy, governance and primary health system interventions across the continent. Specifically, within Nigeria, they have driven successful interventions across nutrition and primary healthcare programmes.
Paul Bhuhi, Managing Director of Vantage Health Technologies said, “Together, we’ll bring new efficiencies into the Nigerian public health system, to overcome challenges in health service delivery, workforce empowerment, patient retention, data interoperability, health information management and data-driven leadership.
“Vantage offers proven AI-driven, data-centric, technology-enabled solutions and innovation that empowers human action. Our goal is to enable public health systems to achieve Universal Health Coverage by 2030. We believe this is possible in Nigeria too. Through our health systems approach, this partnership and its unique combination of AI-enabled technology, deep contextual knowledge and expertise in health leadership and governance, can help address healthcare system challenges with speed and agility.”
Dr Emmanuel Sokpo, Managing Director of NHED said, “Our combined experience, local knowledge and relationships with the government of Nigeria enable us to offer high-impact technical assistance and best-in-class, AI-driven, technology-enabled solutions. Our expertise and solutions bring about organisational change, improved performance, and better program, population, and individual health outcomes. We are excited to see the impact that this joint effort will make in Nigeria – not only for health administrators and caregivers but most importantly their patients, the people of Nigeria.”
