Medilux explores healthcare partnership with Zambia
The Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources is pleased to announce that discussions are underway with Medilux, a leading Finnish digital healthcare company, regarding the establishment of a new medical clinic in Zambia.
The proposed initiative includes the introduction of Etälääkäri, Medilux’s state-of-the-art telemedicine service. Through this platform, doctors and patients can connect securely online, providing access to high-quality healthcare even in remote and underserved areas. The partnership aims to bring advanced medical expertise and modern digital solutions to Zambia, ensuring that vulnerable communities and low-income populations can benefit from timely medical advice, digital consultations, and safe prescription services.
This collaboration represents an important step towards strengthening Zambia’s healthcare infrastructure, improving accessibility, and supporting the government’s vision of inclusive health services for all citizens.
