Maisha Meds is an organization dedicated to improving health care in Africa through best-in-class technology.
Founded in 2017, Maisha Meds has created the largest digital network of private pharmacies and clinics across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Nigeria, and Zambia through our mobile software. Our platform not only helps these providers improve business by making sales, managing inventory, and tracking patients. It also reimburses them for providing high-quality care for malaria, family planning, and HIV prevention at discounted costs.
Maisha Meds logs millions of patient visits every year and has provided hundreds of thousands of reimbursements to date. We harness data from our network of pharmacies and clinics to reveal health and market trends, which allows us to design better solutions that work for the people we serve. We have worked with leading academic institutions such as UC Berkeley, Emory University, and KEMRI to evaluate the effectiveness of our programs. Research shows that our system is able to significantly increase the uptake of long-acting contraceptives and appropriate malaria case management.
Our work is funded by a range of partners including scale-up funding from USAID Development Innovation Ventures and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. This will help Maisha Meds greatly expand its mobile software to 7,500 total pharmacies and clinics by late 2026, delivering subsidized care to nearly a million new patients in the process.
Working at Maisha Meds means joining a fully remote team that prioritizes flexibility in where and when you work, allowing you to balance professional excellence with your personal life. You will contribute to a high-impact mission that has already supported over one million patients, seeing your code or strategy translate directly into more affordable healthcare across sub-Saharan Africa. Our collaborative culture includes opportunities to visit our operations in Kenya, where you can directly see the evidence of our work in action.
