Common Questions

Questions From Healthcare & Pharmacy Decision-Makers

Practical details on integration, data privacy, and operational adoption.

How does the system ensure patient confidentiality under Nigerian data protection laws?

Our healthcare systems implement strict medical role-based permissions (doctors see clinical notes; accountants see only billing). All clinical records are encrypted according to NDPA 2023 guidelines.

Can the system work during hospital internet or power interruptions?

Yes. For hospitals, we deploy local-first network architectures (on-premise local server with cloud mirror) ensuring internal consultations and billing never stall during internet outages.

Does it support Nigerian HMO insurance tariffs?

Yes. You can configure individual price lists and pre-authorization requirements for all major Nigerian HMO providers.
