Ghana-based Telemedicine Startup, Africa Health Holdings, Raises $18m Series A

Ghana-based Healthtech startup Africa Health Holdings, with multiple hospitals and telemedicine services, has raised $18m in a Series A round.

The round was led by Asia Pacific Land/Natural World Limited. While TRB Advisors, Breyer Capital, M3, Inc., Valiant Capital, Kepple Ventures, and SUNU Capital all participated in the investment round.

Africa Health Holdings was launched in 2017 by Sangu Delle. Its MyCareMobile app gives patients access to a variety of services via teleconferencing, including doctor consultations. The platform also offers access to test findings and emergency response 24/7.

Sangu Delle CEO of Africa Health Holdings speaking on the finding said that the startup will keep providing health solutions to those in lower socioeconomic classes.

“Always thinking about what is coming next and how to get quality healthcare to more people, Africa Health Holdings has begun investing in micro-tech-enabled clinics with virtual doctors’ offices that are filled with diagnostic technologies, and nursing support, specifically for people from lower socioeconomic classes.

“Individuals can enter micro-tech-enabled clinics, meet with doctors virtually, consult with nurses, and receive treatment and/or referrals for additional care at a reduced cost,” said Delle.

The cash will be used to expand the company’s “tech-forward healthcare system” throughout Ghana, Kenya, and Nigeria.
