Strategy

We are the only healthcare company in Eastern Africa with a network of health centres, managed and staffed professionally to international standards. This network has made it possible to provide cost-effective healthcare for about one-third the cost charged by other providers in the region. Our strategy is guided by our vision to be the preferred healthcare company in Africa that prioritises the health of its members. The strategic location of the health centres complements our mission to make quality healthcare accessible to all.
Our competency and professional integrity have earned us market leadership, and we now offer primary care to clients of other medical insurance companies in the region, as well as the general public. This foresight is behind the increased demand for our services that is projected to increase by about 50 per cent by 2015.
We aim at building a foundation for the promotion of health and provision of top quality primary healthcare in a personalised, convenient and cost-effective manner, much in the same way as a personal physician, only better.
