This startup is named after 16th-century Algerian scholar, Ibn Hamza Al-Maghribi. It aims to improve the quality of healthcare and medical practices through innovation.
eTabib is an e-health platform developed by the Algerian startup Ibn Hamza, allowing users to access healthcare services online through a mobile application. Founded in 2016 by Mostefa Nabil and based in Algiers, this healthtech company aims to improve the quality and safety of care, as well as the working conditions for healthcare professionals.
The app is available on Huawei's AppGallery and the Android Play Store, boasting over 5,000 downloads. Users can register with their personal information and access various services, including finding doctors for online consultations or posing medical questions to healthcare professionals.
Online consultations are a key benefit of the app, saving time and eliminating the need for waiting in lines. This feature became especially valuable during its 2020 launch amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, giving it a competitive edge.
Additionally, the platform includes a feature for online medical records. Patients have a medical record that updates based on their medical history, allowing doctors to provide more efficient care in future consultations and helping to reduce health expenses by minimizing redundant tests and x-rays.
Doctors, from general practitioners to specialists, can join the eTabib network, which claims to have over 40,000 doctors and clinics across Algeria.
