One health record.
Every clinic. Every pharmacy.
AfyaConnect links Uganda's hospitals and pharmacies so you always know what care you've received — and so your prescription follows you, not the other way around.
Sign in with your NIN and a one-time code sent to your phone. Install AfyaConnect on your phone to open it like any other app — no app store needed.
How AfyaConnect works
Three connected portals, one record per person — looked up by your National ID.
For patients
See every visit, diagnosis and prescription. Request delivery to your home.
For hospitals
Look up a patient by NIN, view their full history, and write prescriptions that any pharmacy can fulfill.
For pharmacies
See incoming prescriptions, check stock, find a partner pharmacy that has the medication, and dispatch delivery.
Hospital portal
Doctors find any patient by their NIN, read past diagnoses across other hospitals, log a new visit and prescribe medication in seconds.
Pharmacy portal
See incoming prescriptions from any hospital. If you don't stock something, the network tells you which nearby pharmacy does.
Privacy that puts patients first
Your health story is yours. Hospitals and pharmacies only see what you allow — and you can revoke access at any time, from any device.
Consent-based access
Doctors and pharmacies see your record only after you grant access.
Time-limited sharing
Grant access for a single visit, a week, or until you revoke it.
Full audit trail
See exactly who opened your record, when, and why.
Encrypted end-to-end
Data is encrypted at rest and in transit. Your NIN is never exposed in URLs.
Everything you need, in one place
From booking to delivery — AfyaConnect quietly handles the paperwork so you can focus on getting better.
Find a doctor
Search by specialty, language and distance — and book a visit in two taps.
Lifelong record
Every visit, lab result and prescription stays with you for life.
Smart prescriptions
Sent digitally to any partner pharmacy — no more lost paper scripts.
Home delivery
Order your medication and have it delivered the same day in many districts.
Emergency card
A quick-access card with allergies, blood type and contacts for first responders.
Works offline
Install AfyaConnect as an app — your record loads even on weak signal.
A visit, end to end
Four steps. One record. Everyone in sync.
Sign in with NIN
Your National ID + a one-time code keeps your record uniquely yours.
Visit any clinic
The doctor sees only the history you've shared — and adds today's notes.

Pickup or delivery
Collect it nearby or have it delivered to your door.
