Popular leading integrated payments and digital commerce company, Interswitch, has launched eClinic, an Electronic Medical Records (EMR) solution.
This is part of the organisation’s sustained efforts to digitalise Nigeria’s healthcare ecosystem.
Commissioned by the Honourable Minister of State for Health, Dr. Iziaq Adekunle Salako, at the National Orthopaedic Hospital, Enugu (NOHE), the unveiling marked the 4th deployment of the eClinic solution in federal health institutions, after previous launches in Osun, Ogun, and Edo States.
The latest milestone represents another major step in the Federal Ministry of Health’s drive to modernise healthcare delivery via digital innovation, and it further emphasises Interswitch’s commitment to healthcare innovation, after its recent collaboration with the Lagos State Government on the Lagos Smart Health Information Platform (SHIP).
Designed to streamline clinical workflows, improve care coordination, and boost patient outcomes, Interswitch’s eClinic provides healthcare professionals real-time access to comprehensive and centralised patient records.
eClinic will also help with several hospital functions like patient registration, diagnostics monitoring, pharmacy management, and administrative reporting. Built with the country’s healthcare infrastructure realities in mind, the platform works online and offline, thereby guaranteeing uptime and uninterrupted service delivery.
Speaking at the event, Babatunde Fadeyi, Vice President, Health Ecosystem (Public Sector), Interswitch, confirmed that the company would continue to commit to innovation and strategic collaboration that will enhance positive health outcomes nationwide.
“Interswitch’s collaboration with key stakeholders, including government institutions, reflects our dedication to drive digital transformation across critical sectors such as healthcare. With eClinic, our EMR solution, we are empowering healthcare professionals to work more efficiently and deliver improved outcomes for patients across the country,” he said.
After the successful launch in Enugu State, Interswitch is looking to expand the eClinic platform to more federal and state health institutions across the nation.
