Ethiopia, home to 70% of Africa’s mountains, boasts breathtaking peaks and challenging trails for adventurers. However, these majestic landscapes also pose significant challenges for the locals. Farming is hard, with rugged terrain leading to erosion and landslides.
MedRafa, a healthcare solutions provider, has partnered with WeVenture Hub to integrate pharmacies across Addis Ababa into the country’s digital health ecosystem.
This initiative targets improving e-prescription services, upgrading prescription management, and expanding access to medicines.
Medrafa stated that the platform creates a secure, user-friendly, and scalable system that reduces prescription errors, cuts patient waiting times, and strengthens connections between healthcare stakeholders.
The system provides management tools, including: purchase order management which smoothens medication orders and ensures stock availability; real-time inventory tracking which monitors stock levels and sends alerts for low inventory.
The tools also include expiration date notifications that flags soon-to-expire products to prevent waste, and sales history tracking which records transactions for financial oversight and regulatory compliance.
Ben Tesfaye, co-founder of MedRafa, stated that the e-prescription and pharmacy integration service will launch in the capital city first, with plans for expansion.
