Headquarters
For nearly 15 years, AMI’s hospital-based clinics across East and West Africa relied on paper records, a system that proved challenging in today’s increasingly digital healthcare environment.
Physician-owned and physician-led, AMI Expeditionary Healthcare is a novel healthcare support organization. They provide medical solutions and services to some of the most remote and challenging environments in the world. AMI have delivered countless healthcare solutions to over 140 clinical and hospital settings on four continents, providing medical solutions and delivering critical services to federal, state, and local governments, international organizations and private corporations and institutions all over the world.
Inefficient operations across remote clinics
AMI had been using paper-based record-keeping for nearly 15 years and faced several challenges.
Managing patient records manually was inefficient, especially given the frequent need for remote access and quality audits across multiple clinics.
Previous attempts to transition to electronic health records (EHR) had failed due to the lack of a flexible, low-resource-friendly system that could operate effectively with minimal internet connectivity.
Additionally, gaining buy-in from local staff was difficult, as they had limited experience with digital record systems.
An adaptable, offline-capable EHR tailored for seamless patient management, real-time data access, and enhanced operational support.
The MyC platform, a fully customizable, low-bandwidth, offline-capable system designed for remote clinics, securely stores and manages patients' medical information. It also ensures GDPR and HIPAA compliance and allowing for real-time data and automated reporting.
From a 3-month run-up for pre-launch planning to on-site training, led by our Africa representative, Byron, who conducted hands-on sessions in the clinics ensured smooth adoption.
We also supported AMI’s staff by offering ongoing, 24/7 communication, training resources and guidance to prepare their team for the transition, ensuring they were well-equipped and confident in using the new digital system.
AMI's Africa-based clinics needed a shift from paper to digital records to boost efficiency and compliance.
MyC provided a low-bandwidth, offline-capable EMR tailored for remote settings, with an intuitive interface that enabled smooth adoption by local staff. As a result, AMI achieved improved clinic efficiency, better audit and compliance processes, and reduced paper usage, supporting sustainable operations across multiple locations.
