Maisha, Vaya Conjoin To Deliver Medicines To Citizens
Cassava Smartech Zimbabwe’s medical and logistics units, Maisha Health and Vaya, have collaborated to deliver medicines to citizens in need.
This follows the government’s reimposition of a stricter national lockdown following a coronavirus resurgence.
Mr Eddie Chibi, Cassava’s Chief Executive Officer, said Maisha is leveraging technology to make healthcare accessible to all. He said:
As a result of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, we recognised that seeing a patient personally may not be possible or advisable given the requirements of social and physical distancing, and self-isolation.
With the recent increase in cases of Covid-19, the use of virtual care has the potential to reduce unnecessary patient contact in pharmacies, where patients may put themselves and others – such as fellow patients, medical and pharmaceutical staff – at risk.
Maisha is a digital personal health assistant that offers a suite of comprehensive technology-enabled health services, ranging from health education, medical appointments, electronic health records, telemedicine services and remote patient monitoring for diabetics and hypertensive.

The unit recently introduced a Virtual Pharmacy that allows members and non-members to order prescription drugs over the phone.
The novel concept ensures that Zimbabweans are getting the care and support they need while encouraging social distancing during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Chibi said the innovation was made possible through group synergies with Vaya Express, bringing to fruition the group’s mandate to give Zimbabweans access to easy technology-enabled health services.
