The tool was deployed in collaboration with Smart Communications, a mobile and internet service provider in the Philippines.

Results at the conclusion of the pilot phase, which recorded over 12,000 patient consultations, indicate that such a system is not only feasible and improves patient care in rural health clinics, but also has a real impact for decision makers.
