Wellahealth is a health technology startup, and our goal is to provide affordable and accessible, high-quality healthcare protection for all Africans.

We provide pharmaceutical care software to manage patient relationships for pharmacies, and we run a health care program in partnership with Axa mansard, one of the largest insurers in the world. We now offer three types of care-plan:

1. The free plan which gives you access to basic health care needs such as a savings account where you can save money for future health needs, a diet plan, a loans account, and health care screenings
2. The malaria plan which gives you access to everything under the free plan, but also adds on malaria testing, treatment, and access to doctors via chat or phone
3. The CashPlus plan gives you access to everything in the free and malaria plan but adds in cash payment for hospitalization and accidental death

The CashPlus plan gives you access to everything the malaria plan gives you access to, in addition to a cash payment for money spent during hospitalisation for up to N100,000, and cash payment in case of accidental death for up to N80,000.

With the CashPlus plan, you are covered for any illness except for Coronavirus.

If you purchase a monthly plan, it takes 2 weeks before you can access the service; which is why we recommend you purchase either the quarterly, biannual or annual plan so you can get access instantly.

The free plan is free, and it lets you save towards future health care bills, helps you pay for health care needs while giving you access to diet plans, access to health screenings, but it does not cover you for any illnesses. When you have saved enough, you can use those savings to pay for your health care needs.

A urine malaria test (UMT) kit is similar to a rapid diagnostic test that we use at our participating pharmacies. The only difference is that this tests your urine in 25 minutes and lets you know if you have malaria or not. The UMT does not need blood to be collected and can be done in your home. If you have the malaria plan, you can contact us and we can send you a UMT kit for you to use in your home, then connect you to a pharmacy for drugs based on the result of the test.

For the Free plan: Once you are signed up, you can contact us via phone or WhatsApp with your service needs and we will assist right away.

Malaria plan: Once you are signed up, we will reach out to you to verify all your details, and then we let you know the closest partner pharmacy to you where you will be tested and drugs will be given to you.

CashPlus plan: If you are admitted to a hospital for longer than 2 days, you will contact us to inform us and after you have been discharged, you will send us your receipt and we will pay you back some of the expenses you were charged for at the hospital.

No, there are other options. If you wish to subscribe quarterly, bi-annually, or annually, we have those options available to you as well.

With the malaria plan, you can get access to treatment only once a month.

That’s great! We have family plans as well. You can buy a plan for 5 people or less through the website at https://www.wellahealth.com/Home/Subscribe

The symptoms one feels when they have malaria are not unique to malaria. Most bacterial infections (tonsillitis, urinary tract infections, pneumonia, skin infections etc) and viral infections like (flu, chickenpox, hepatitis, meningitis etc) share similar symptoms with malaria. Hence, symptoms alone are inconclusive.

If symptoms persist, please consult your doctor.

Our model of testing is as according to the recommendation of the World Health Organisation.

People may test positive in other labs because:

• They are getting a false-positive result. Certain inferior methods of testing have a high rate of false positivity.
• Some methods of testing are subjective to the scientist testing and an inexperienced scientist can report a negative result as positive.
• Unfortunately, some labs/hospitals do not do these tests and just give positive results so patients can be treated and pay more money.
• Occasionally, patients may test negative at the time of an initial test and test positive a while after because the parasite count at the time of initial testing was low and an increase will bring about a positive test.

In many cases of flu, which is the most common reason why people treat malaria when they don't have it, people will get better whether or not they take antimalarials, because flu is self-limiting; it will run its course and resolve even without taking any medication. Many times symptoms resolve while someone is on antimalarials and it's not really because of the malaria treatment, it will be because it was time for the flu to go.

Some health practitioners combine antimalarials and antibiotics so that if the person doesn't have malaria but have an infection, the antibiotics will take care of their symptoms. Sometimes it's neither the antimalarial or the antibiotics that made the person get better.

Finally, studies have shown that only about 10-15% who bought antimalarials in Nigeria don't have it but they believe they have it, they will take medications and may feel better afterwards.
