How can we help?

KimboCare is not a health insurance. There is no commitment to monthly premiums as it is the case with health insurance. With KimboCare, you support loved ones as much and as often as you want. KimboCare's health credits are medical services prepaid by our customers for patients with limited financial means. Additionally, our customers always know upfront how much care is expected to cost and patients gain "free" access to affordable quality healthcare at dedicated hospitals and pharmacies.

KimboCare partners with thoroughly vetted medical partners (hospitals, pharmacies and other healthcare providers) in several countries across West and East Africa: Kenya, Senegal, Ivory Coast and Cameroon.

Our customers purchase health credits. The purchased health credits can then be used by relatives (patients), identified by our customers, at carefully selected medical partners in the countries where we operate. Health credits are used to access quality care only, as intended. In addition, our customers have access to the patient journey online in real time, allowing them to see exactly where and how care is being delivered to their loved ones.

Our clients’ loved ones, the patients, receive exceptional care in no time, delivered by thoroughly vetted doctors and pharmacists. We strive to ensure that our patients feel heard and understood during their medical visits and remain in touch with them through their recovery.

KimboCare’s medical partners, typically the best pharmacies and hospitals in town, have been selected after a rigorous scientific procedure respecting the national and international norms. We work with our partners to design a care experience adapted to our patients and their social realities. Depending on the country and medical partners, patients can access care on site at the hospital or pharmacy, online through telemedicine and in the comfort of their homes.

Once you log on to your account, you can buy health credits in three simple steps.

1. Top up your account

2. Enter the details of your loved one (the patient)

3. Choose the desired treatment and a medical facility in the destination country

It is that simple. Check out our video user guide on our Youtube channel.

Each medical service bundle offered on our website is associated with a fixed number of health credits. Patients receive care up to the number of health credits offered. We advise clients to discuss with their loved ones which package to purchase, although we suggest always starting with a general consultation to perform an initial assessment and propose a treatment plan.

The value of one health credit depends on the currency. For example, it is equivalent to 1 EUR or 1 USD. Health services will only be provided to the patient up to the amount of health credits purchased.

No, you can purchase as many health credits as you want and use them whenever you are ready to support a loved one with access to care.

KimboCare has been acknowledged by international organizations for its impact driving equitable access to healthcare worldwide. Our medical partners benefit from an increased visibility and a strengthened brand. Other benefits to facilities include, but are not limited to, a steady stream of solvable patients, an integrated and easy-to-use care management platform, regular training to ensure consistent care delivery, and the satisfaction of providing care to underserved communities. To amplify care access for people with limited means, we encourage our medical facilities to recommend KimboCare to their constituents, promoting mass access to quality care.
