The pandemic pressed the fast-forward button, bringing an urgency into health data accessibility and analytics. This is a global problem that has been successfully addressed by a patient-centred health care innovation such as AfyaRekod.  In Kenya alone AfyaRekod has over 150,000 users and has recently launched in Nigeria, Uganda and South Africa.

Medical records are a vital tool in managing health, notifying healthcare professionals of medications, chronic illness, past problems and procedures and ultimately allowing them to determine the most accurate course of treatment. Misdiagnosis is serious and can lead to a delay in treatment of the real condition. An IOM report released in 2015 indicated that around 12 million instances of patient misdiagnosis occur annually in the USA, a country with a well-developed healthcare sector. Misdiagnosis is preventable, but only if health records are accurate and mobile.
