Pana+Care
Making a difference in patient - centred healthcare
Pana+Care was founded after our founder lost a family member to diabetes during COVID-19, a death made worse by how inaccessible rural healthcare became when it mattered most. That loss exposed a system with no protocol for managing chronic disease over time, where patients get diagnosed and then disappear until the next crisis.
We built Pana+Care to close that gap, starting with diabetes and hypertension because the case for urgency was undeniable: 33 million Kenyans live with a non-communicable disease, and fewer than 15% receive any structured follow-up. The model we built for those two conditions, continuous monitoring, AI-assisted treatment planning, Community Health Promoter integration, extends to any chronic condition that needs the same thing.
How we work
Every patient runs on their own 90-day clock, not a series of one-off visits. The cycle below repeats for as long as a patient needs structured care.
01.
Community Screening
- CHPs identify patients with hypertension, diabetes, or other NCDs in the community and refer them into the clinic system.
02.
PanaLink Assessment
- At clinic, PanaLink generates an evidence-based 90-day plan medication, diet protocol, and monitoring schedule.
03.
90-Day Follow-Up
- Monthly visits, home follow-ups by CHPs, and the caregiver app keep patients engaged throughout each cycle.
04.
Cycle Review & Renewal
- At day 90, outcomes are measured and a new plan is issued. For chronic conditions, the cycle resets indefinitely.
Our mission
Our mission is to make structured, continuous care the standard for chronic disease management in Kenyan primary care. We do this by connecting community health promoters, local clinicians, and specialist doctors around a single 90-day treatment plan per patient, starting with diabetes and hypertension.
Our vision
We see a Kenya where no patient with a chronic condition falls out of care between visits, regardless of which disease they're managing or which clinic they walk into, county by county, condition by condition.
Who we Serve
– Clinics: Pana+Care equips primary care clinics with PanaLink and a connected Community Health Promoter network, so clinical teams can run structured follow-up without adding staff. Clinics retain patients longer and reduce the no-show and dropout rates that come with one-off visit models.
– County Health Departments:County health departments gain population-level visibility into facility performance and patient outcomes, data that doesn’t currently exist at scale.
-Patients and Families: Patients managing diabetes or hypertension get a care team, not a single appointment, specialist doctors, local clinicians, and Community Health Promoters working from one treatment plan. Families receive medication reminders and health updates between visits, so care doesn’t stop at the clinic door.
Frequently asked questions
Is Pana+Care a hospital?
No. We work with licensed, vetted clinics and connect you to specialist doctors, clinical officers, and Community Health Promoters through one platform.
How does the 90-day care plan work?
After an initial assessment, you receive a personalized treatment plan covering medication, diet, and monitoring. A Community Health Promoter follows up between clinic visits, and the plan is reviewed and renewed every 90 days.
Is my health information secure?
Yes. All data is encrypted, and we follow strict data protection practices in line with Kenyan regulations.
What conditions does Pana+Care treat?
We currently focus on diabetes and hypertension, structured around continuous 90-day care plans rather than one-off consultations.
Do I need to sign up for an account?
Yes. Registration takes a few minutes and gives you access to your care plan, medication reminders, and your care team.
