AbaAccess is a digital health access platform that enables individuals and families to purchase healthcare packages, manage dependents, and seamlessly access services across partner facilities through a consent-first system.
AbaAccess is part of the ABA ecosystem, which includes:
- AbaAccess (Member App): For patients and families
- ABA Partner (Facility App): For clinics, laboratories, and pharmacies
Together, they create a connected experience where healthcare services can be accessed predictably, transparently, and efficiently.
Healthcare access is often:
- Unpredictable in cost
- Fragmented across services (consultation, lab, pharmacy)
- Difficult to coordinate for dependents
- Lacking transparency and trust
AbaAccess introduces healthcare packages (bundles) and a consent-driven redemption flow:
- Users purchase packages (e.g., Care Bundle, Consultation-only, Lab-only, Pharmacy-only)
- Facilities initiate service requests
- Users approve requests using a secure PIN
- The system automatically applies the most appropriate package
- Any uncovered services are handled via out-of-pocket payment
- User registration and authentication (phone + PIN)
- Profile setup (name, location)
- ABA Member ID (unique identifier)
- Add and manage up to 3 dependents
- Assign healthcare usage across family members
- Purchase healthcare packages
- Track usage (visits remaining)
- Support for bundled and single-service packages
- Facility requests require user approval
- Approval via PIN ensures consent and transparency
- Supports remote approvals (e.g., caregiver scenarios)
- Track visits across:
- Consultation
- Laboratory
- Pharmacy
- View prescriptions, lab results, and visit summaries
- Wallet top-up (Mobile Money)
- Transaction history
- Out-of-pocket payments when coverage is insufficient
- Discover partner facilities
- Book visits for self or dependents
- Track booking status
- User signs up and sets up profile
- User purchases a healthcare package
- User visits a partner facility
- Facility initiates a service request (via ABA Partner)
- User approves request using PIN
- System applies package coverage
- User continues through care (consultation → lab → pharmacy)
- Transactions and visit history are recorded
- Consent-first: Every service requires explicit user approval
- Station-based flow: Coverage is applied at each service point
- Package intelligence: System selects the best available package automatically
- Fallback flexibility: Out-of-pocket payment supported when needed
- Frontend: React + TypeScript
- UI Components: Kendo React / Custom Design System
- State Management: React Query / Redux Toolkit
- Backend: Node.js / .NET / Firebase (depending on implementation)
