Mobile WACh
A semi-automated interactive SMS communication platform connecting clients with healthcare workers. It automatically sends a pre-composed curriculum of SMS and facilitates dialog with a live HCW.
Mobile WACh can be adapted to support strained LMIC healthcare systems during the pandemic by providing 1. guidance by SMS on symptoms, social distancing, and care-seeking to the general population and HCWs. 2. interactive triage of patient symptoms by a HCW 3. interactive remote routine HCW consultations as even more pronounced shortages of in-person medical care occur
