We’re committed to impact, and we measure it in better health decisions, not models shipped. Elsa works with partners across Tanzania: in private drug shops, rural clinics and HIV Care and Treatment Centers.
Afya-Tek connects community health workers, facility staff and private drug shop dispensers to reduce fragmentation, streamline referrals and manage patient care together. At drug shops, Elsa helps dispensers identify likely causes of illness and choose appropriate next steps.
Too many children die of preventable causes like pneumonia and malaria. Elsa puts pediatric decision support in the hands of clinical officers and dispensers in rural settings that lack diagnostic resources and specialist training, so they can diagnose more accurately and prescribe fewer unnecessary antibiotics.
In partnership with Meru District Hospital, Elsa helps clinicians at Care and Treatment Centers identify hard-to-diagnose opportunistic infections, predict medication adherence and drug resistance, flag patients for testing, and find patients lost to follow-up.
We design every deployment to end up inside the health system, owned by districts and government and supported by us.
We build with providers and district health teams, around the decisions that matter most locally.
We measure decisions and outcomes against a comparison, and publish what we find.
We build Elsa into national guidelines, health information systems and provider training.
A government-led rollout, with us providing models, monitoring and support.
“The technology has changed how we work. It helps me assess my patients’ symptoms and recommends a treatment plan.”
