Vula Mobile Aims To Connect Healthcare Workers To Information About Their Practices. Vula Mobile connects healthcare workers by providing a safe and secure platform to refer patients and share advice. Get more accurate referrals, and treat the patients who really need your expertise. It has worked with specialists in academic hospitals to make sure the right clinical information for their speciality is captured in the referral. The chat feedback about specific referrals can help primary health workers to up-skill in their speciality.
“Use of Vula in surgery has dramatically reduced the number of phone calls needed for patient referrals from our referring level 1 hospitals. Together with the real-time chat functionality, this enables us to appropriately guide referral to level 2 and give clinical advice.” — Dr Riaan Duvenage, Head Clinical Surgery, Worcester Hospital said on the company’s website. The company is committed to making sure that their clients can get the best advice for their patients in a safe and secure environment. Almost 20,000 healthcare workers are using Vula to improve patient care across South Africa.
Healthcare workers have referred and been able to receive advice for more than 350,000 patients. Where ever their clients work they can join one of more than 6,000 facilities, hospitals and clinics on Vula. Vula connects healthcare workers and provides a secure, safe platform to receive advice on patient treatment plans and refer patients to specialist services and departments. Its solution is customisable for all medical specialisations and allows for easy transfer of structured patient information and images.

Its mobile app is available from major app stores and its clients can download the app and complete the registration process and join a team or practice as they will be able to search for the facility they want to refer to and select the on call specialist department.
