Blood pressure, sugar, weight and symptoms arrive by app, SMS, USSD or WhatsApp. Every route writes to the same record.

Teleconsultation

Video, audio or chat, with audio fallback where bandwidth is thin. Consent captured before, notes written during, prescription issued at the end.

E-prescriptions and refills

Repeat prescriptions with validity and refill counts, dispensing records, and reminders when a refill falls due.

Questions

Asked and answered

What is Chronia?

Chronia is a chronic disease management platform built by Caresoft Systems. Unlike a hospital information system, which records separate visits, Chronia keeps one continuous record per patient over years, covering every chronic condition they live with. It combines a patient registry, care plans, remote vital capture, teleconsultation, e-prescriptions, lab results and follow-up in a single system.

Which chronic diseases does Chronia cover?

Chronia does not hard-code diseases. Every condition is defined as a condition pack containing the parameters tracked, target ranges, review frequency, red-flag rules and patient education. Fourteen packs ship ready to use, including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, sickle cell disease, asthma, COPD, epilepsy, thyroid disorder, cardiovascular disease, cancer follow-up, HIV, tuberculosis, obesity and chronic mental health. New conditions are added as configuration, not as new code.

Does Chronia include teleconsultation?

Yes. Chronia includes scheduled and on-demand teleconsultation over video, audio or chat, with an audio fallback for low-bandwidth areas. Consent is captured before the session, clinical notes are written during it, and the doctor issues the e-prescription from the same screen, so nothing is re-keyed afterwards.

Where is patient data stored?

Chronia stores each client on its own database with a configurable data region. During a pilot the platform may run on Caresoft infrastructure, and for production the deployment can be moved to the client country or a region of their choice. This matters where health data is a sensitive category and cross-border transfer is restricted, as it is in Senegal under Law 2008-12.

Which languages does Chronia support?

Chronia runs on a full internationalisation layer. English is the default interface language and French can be selected by any user at any time. No text is hard-coded, so further languages, including local languages for patient messaging, are added as language packs.
