The problem ELMED addresses
Healthcare journeys cross organisational boundaries. A patient may book at one practice, receive a prescription, visit a pharmacy and return for follow-up with information held in several systems. ELMED connects these steps around a shared patient journey.
The product
The platform combines patient accounts and family records with professional portals, a browser video consultation room, digital prescriptions and pharmacy ordering. The nurse-assisted consultation model connects an on-site patient and nurse with a remote doctor.
The commercial model
Patients use the platform free. Professional subscriptions provide a recurring software model without taking a percentage of patient payments. Premium plans include practice or pharmacy website options, while integration plans support existing systems.
A practical starting point
Apius Pharmacy in Goodwood, Cape Town is the first pharmacy partner using an ELMED-powered website and online shop. Partnerships with more practices and pharmacies are central to building a useful patient network.
Current stage and next steps
ELMED is in early access. The Android patient app is published on our website; scheme onboarding and online consultation payments are not live. Contact the founder for current operational information, a demonstration and an appropriate discussion of partnership or investment.
