App Profile: Bisa

Bisa Health application allows the public access to doctors and other healthcare practitioners
using their mobile devices. This is an advantage for people who need medical care and advice
but are unable to visit the hospital for various reasons such as cost/affordability, long queues at
the hospital and the fear of stigmatization (especially for people who are exhibiting symptoms of
Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) and are embarrassed to seek the needed treatment).
For the aforementioned reasons and many others, there remains a gap in the delivery of
healthcare, which does not allow certain groups or classes of people to seek medical help when
needed.
The Bisa Health Application (Bisa) was developed as a solution to the identified gap in the
healthcare system - to address the disparity in access to healthcare using modern technology
thus allowing patients to obtain medical help cheaply and easily when needed. It is the
Company’s firm belief that healthcare is a basic entitlement which must be available to all,
regardless of socioeconomic status, location, religion, race or gender.
