Fewer no-shows. Faster results. Bills paid before discharge.

Sozuri runs appointment reminders, results delivery and M-Pesa billing for Kenyan healthcare providers. Patients get the right message at the right moment — on the channel they already check first.

The customer

Meet Afya Plus — a clinic chain serving 40,000 patients a year across the Nairobi metro.

For healthcare providers, missed appointments and delayed payments are silent killers of margin. The fix isn't more software — it's reaching patients on the channel they actually open. In Kenya, that's SMS and WhatsApp, every single time.

The journey

From booking to "asante daktari" — three scenes

1 Book & remind

A WhatsApp message replaces three follow-up calls.

The reception clinic books on the EMR, the patient receives a verified-business WhatsApp confirmation, and a reminder fires the evening before the visit. Patient reply lands as a webhook so the dashboard stays in sync.

  • WhatsApp templates for confirmation + day-before reminder
  • Two-way replies (CONFIRM / RESCHED / CANCEL) trigger dashboard updates
  • SMS fallback for patients not on WhatsApp

Afya Plus: Dr. Otieno tomorrow 10:30am, Westlands. Reply C to confirm, R to reschedule, X to cancel.Evening before
C18:02
Afya Plus: Confirmed. Please fast 8 hrs; bring NHIF card. Karibu.18:02
2 Diagnose & deliver

Results land on the patient's phone — not in a paper envelope.

When labs sign off the report, the patient gets a branded SMS with a secure link or a WhatsApp message with the PDF attached. Privacy-preserving, opt-out friendly, audit-logged with timestamp and reader.

  • SMS or WhatsApp depending on patient preference
  • Time-limited secure links for sensitive reports
  • Audit log of every result delivery for ODPC compliance

3 Bill & close

STK Push at discharge. Receipt in the same SMS thread.

For self-pay patients, the cashier fires an M-Pesa STK from the front desk. The patient confirms on their phone, the OTP-stamped receipt lands on both their phone and the cashier's — goodbye paper receipt, hello clean reconciliation.

  • M-Pesa STK from the EMR or front-desk app
  • OTP-stamped confirmation for fraud-free release
  • NHIF claims tracked separately in the audit log

What's behind it

Three Sozuri products — one patient experience

What changes

Margin gains, on the metrics that matter

−34%

Missed appointments

A reminder the evening before and a quick CONFIRM / RESCHED loop dramatically reduce no-shows across clinics that switch.

Results delivery speed

From "we'll call you" to a secure link the moment the lab signs off. Reduces call-centre load and patient anxiety in one move.

98%

Self-pay collection at discharge

STK Push closes the loop before the patient leaves. Days-sales-outstanding drops to nearly zero on cash visits.

“Reminders aren't optional any more. The day we switched to WhatsApp + SMS reminders, the no-show rate fell off a cliff — and our cashiers got their afternoons back.”
