How it works

Health guidance, one phone call away

Designed for low-infrastructure settings where a clinic may be hours away and smartphones are rare.

1

Reach the line

Call the number from any phone over the normal network, or chat here in your browser. No app, no data needed.

2

Speak naturally

Describe your symptom or question in plain English. The assistant listens and understands.

3

Get a grounded answer

Advice is drawn from Ghana's Standard Treatment Guidelines — not generic internet text.

4

Safety & oversight

Red-flag symptoms are escalated to 112, and doctors review conversations to keep it safe.

Why it matters

Not another chatbot — a health service for Ghana

Access to medical guidance shouldn't depend on owning a smartphone or living near a clinic.

Built on Ghana's data

Grounded in Ghana's official Standard Treatment Guidelines (2017) — the same reference the country's own clinicians use. Not western, generic medical text.

Works on any phone

Runs over ordinary phone calls. A basic feature phone with no internet reaches it just as easily as a smartphone.

Safety-first triage

Detects emergencies — chest pain, bleeding, collapse — and immediately directs callers to 112. It never diagnoses or prescribes.

Doctors in the loop

Every conversation can be reviewed and rated by real doctors through a secure portal, so the system stays accountable and keeps improving.

Answers you can trace

Each answer cites the guideline passage it came from, so advice is transparent and checkable — not a black box.

A research first

A pioneering study of retrieval-augmented AI for medical triage in a low-resource African setting — delivered as a real, working service.

Important: Ama provides first-aid and triage guidance only. It is an AI assistant, not a doctor, and does not diagnose or prescribe. In an emergency, call 112 or go to the nearest health facility immediately. Conversations may be recorded and reviewed by medical staff to improve care.
