Healthcare in Africa

Built for How African Healthcare Actually Works

African healthcare runs on relationships, phone calls, and paper files. That works until a facility needs a verified nurse at 2 AM, or an insurer rejects a claim because the documentation trail is incomplete. OnLocum replaces the manual workarounds with a platform that verifies workers against local regulatory bodies, processes payments via M-Pesa, files SHA claims digitally, and gives every facility a complete HMIS.

OnLocum is built in Kenya for the realities of African healthcare: credential verification against local regulatory bodies, M-Pesa payments, SHA insurance claims, and staffing workflows designed for how facilities actually operate.

What makes this different

Healthcare facilities across Africa spend hours on phone calls and WhatsApp messages to fill shifts and verify credentials. That time comes directly out of patient care.
Insurance claims get rejected when documentation lives in disconnected systems. A single platform from consultation to claim submission cuts rejection rates.
Workers who build a verified track record deserve to carry that reputation to every facility, not start from zero each time.

Credential verification that works with African regulatory bodies

OnLocum checks worker licenses directly against the Nursing Council of Kenya, Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council, and Pharmacy and Poisons Board. As we expand, the same verification model connects to each country's regulatory bodies. No more accepting photocopied certificates at face value.

Payments and billing built for African payment rails

Workers get paid via M-Pesa within 48 hours of shift approval. Facilities bill in KES. Insurance claims submit to SHA and private insurers through built-in integrations. The entire payment chain stays in one system, from timesheet approval to worker payout.

A hospital management system that does not assume Western infrastructure

FlowMed by OnLocum handles patient registration, triage, consultations, lab, pharmacy, billing, and claims. It works on mobile devices, handles intermittent connectivity, and supports the workflows Kenyan hospitals actually use, including NHIF/SHA claim formats and MOH reporting.

Staffing that understands African healthcare realities

Shift patterns, locum culture, multi-facility workers, and the reality that a single nurse might work at three facilities in a week. OnLocum handles portable reputation, cross-facility scheduling, and compliance tracking across all of them.

How It Works

Trust that grows with every shift

A worker's reputation isn't trapped in one facility's memory. It travels across every shift, every facility, and every workflow — getting stronger with use.

Verify against local regulators

Every worker's license is checked against NCK, KMPDC, or PPB. Expired credentials are flagged before they become a compliance risk.

Match, schedule, and track

Post shifts, get matched with verified professionals, track attendance automatically, and approve timesheets in the system.

Pay and document

M-Pesa payments process automatically. Clinical records, billing, and claims flow through one system for clean audit trails.
