Advantage Health Africa is the umbrella for these various initiatives and venture, established in January, 2017 and began full operations in July of the same year. AHA was born out a desire to see significant performance improvement in the healthcare industry, particularly in business improvement and patient care treatment outcomes. The first entry point has been via use of technology in improving access to medicines (my-medicines.com) and skills development (AHA Capacity development initiatives). The AHA team has also championed two core sector-wide initiatives in pharmacy, the aggregation and clustering of retail pharmacies (CPN Nexus) and the stimulation of young leaders with a mindset to take on challenges as opportunities (the PLSP).
