Transforming chronic disease management in support of World AIDS Day

As we approach World AIDS Day on December 1st, Allegra Healthcare Management, an industry leader in health technology (health-tech), is collaborating with healthcare providers to redefine chronic disease management, with a specific focus on HIV and AIDS.

At the heart of this initiative lies Allegra’s unwavering commitment to centring the patient in the realm of their healthcare journey. Our belief is that the path to enhanced patient care starts with ensuring that individuals living with chronic diseases, including HIV and AIDS, receive the support they require.
This collaboration is made possible through the innovative health-tech solutions offered by
Allegra. Revolutionizing the delivery of chronic disease management. The aim of this
initiative is to guarantee that all patients including patients living with HIV and AIDS
experience personalised care, including when their prescriptions for chronic medication need to be renewed.

To simplify the healthcare journey for a patient living with a chronic disease a
multidisciplinary team is required;
1. Medical Aid Patients: Who have provided consent to their courier pharmacy for the
monthly delivery of their chronic medication. Polmed Medical Aid Members have
been selected only for the pilot project (Allegra will roll this out to more medical aids
in the upcoming months.
2. Allegra HealthFindr: Online appointment scheduling software. Appointments are
facilitated and conveniently made at a pharmacy clinic of the patient’s choice.
3. IVC Nurse Practitioners: These dedicated professionals connect with patients,
ensuring they remain well-informed, involved and supported throughout their
healthcare journey.
4. Allegra VirtualCare Telehealth Software: Our cutting-edge telehealth software
connects patients and healthcare providers, offering a seamless platform for communication and care.

5. Pathology: A critical facet of chronic disease management is requesting pathology
tests, ensuring that essential blood work is conducted as an integral part of the
treatment plan.
6. Allegra WellScreen: Empowers nurses to conduct comprehensive health risk
assessments, generating valuable insights into the patient’s overall well-being. An
excellent platform for preventative care and early detection of chronic disease.
7. Secure Electronic Scripts: Allegra guarantees the secure storage of patient scripts,
with top-tier two-factor authentication to enssure privacy and security. The eScript
Vault requires a secure API login from the system of the Dr who submit the script to
the vault and a secure API from the pharmacy system that retrieve the eScript from
the vault. Users cannot access the Vault any other way.

Allegra’s health-tech transforms pharmaceutical care delivery. We play a key role in
simplifying chronic disease management, with a commitment to provide digital solutions to a multidisciplinary team of healthcare providers.

Commencing with HIV and AIDS as a chronic disease is a strategic choice, that supports the 90/90/90 initiative in South Africa. Our commitment to improving the lives of those affected by this disease underscores our dedication to enhancing healthcare outcomes within our communities.
