NuHealth puts patients, clinicians, pharmacies and hospitals on one platform — a consultation on your phone, a script that reaches the counter, a record that follows you into the ward. Built here, for the way care actually happens here.
Each kind of user gets a home built for their day — and every home reads the same record.
Distance to a clinic, to a pharmacy that is open, to the file that holds your history. Technology cannot build a hospital — but it can close that distance, today, on the phone in your pocket.
Everyone else relies on public care that is stretched thin. A phone is often closer than a clinic — so we built care that starts on the phone.

A script written in a consultation, dispensed at a pharmacy and read on a ward should be one record. On NuHealth it is.
A free tier, Rand-based payments and state-subsidised free consultations where a clinician works for a public facility.
Since 2023
Built in South Africa, for the whole country
We exist to shorten the distance between a person and the care they need: to put a clinician on the phone in minutes, a script at the nearest counter, and a complete record in the hands of whoever is treating you next.
Every feature begins with the person receiving care — plain language, accessible screens, nothing hidden.
POPIA-compliant by design, field-level encryption, and a record only its owner and their clinicians may read.
Dr LYNX answers in seconds, summarises a consultation, and never pretends to be the clinician.
HPCSA and SAPC verification, medical-scheme claims, NHI readiness, Rand payments and nine of our languages.
NuHealth Social, support circles and iQuit — because healing happens between people, not only in rooms.
A free tier, offline-first records and a platform that works on the phones people actually own.
2023
Our parent company opened its doors in South Africa, building custom software and health-tech for private clients across South Africa.
2024
POPIA architecture, the medical-scheme and claims landscape, NHI readiness and clinical workflow studies with practising clinicians — before a line of NuHealth code.
2025
The patient super-app first — records, Dr LYNX, teleconsultation, ePharmacy — then the clinician and patient web portals on one shared clinical backbone.
2026
The hospital information system and the pharmacy portal, payments and claims hardened, and NuHealth opened to every South African.
A South African team, building for clinics, pharmacies and homes across the country.
