How to Seek for Medical Advice on Bisa Health App with Phone

Bisa means “ask” in the Ghanaian twi language. Bisa is a mobile application that allows users with an android or windows phone to interact directly with medical practitioners without having physical contact; an advantage to people who have health concerns but are shy to talk to a doctor face to face about. Most people do not like to visit hospital for check up for various reasons. Some of these reasons include the long queue system at the hospitals. Also for the fear of stigmatization, most people especially those who suffer symptoms of sexually transmitted diseases (STD’s) scarcely visit the hospital.

The act of self­medication among Ghanaians has become a serious threat to our existence especially the use and abuse of painkillers, antibiotics and aphrodisiac products. The phenomenon is thriving due to the busy nature of the working class and general poverty among the people, especially those in the deprived areas, making it impossible for a number of them to visit the hospital for medical care. Buying medicines from drug peddlers and quack doctors have become the order of the day and the business is booming at the markets where most traders patronise these services. People chose to buy drugs from these sellers because it is easy to come by, at a cheaper price and it is brought to them in the comfort of their homes and workplaces.

For the poor, the reason could be that they have no money to pay for hospital bills, as the National Health Insurance Scheme does not cover every medication. Many individuals self­medicate as a result leading to antibiotic drug resistance and poor healthcare seeking practices. In this modem world there is for  mobile application, SMS and USSD to address some of these critical healthcare challenges in the country. These challenges enumerated above gave birth to the development of Bisa App to help address these fundamental healthcare problems.
