Health care services in Nigeria and worldwide have been undergoing many changes in recent years. Though COVID-19 is one of the significant reasons, aging populations, technological advancements, discoveries for treating disease, changing disease patterns, etc., are the other reasons. Also, the other prime reason is a doctor on-demand health care services that reduce hospital visits by patients, especially in Nigeria, which is the most populist state and largest economy in Africa but ranks low in the human development index. The Nigerian healthcare infrastructure is still underdeveloped and lacks modern medical facilities. Also, the population is increasing at 3.2% per annum, which is to reach 400 million by 2050. This article will discuss the changes in the health care services in Nigeria to enable elderly parents to get their due health care from doctor visits with subscription facilities and reports for people to have peace of mind from anywhere. What is the subscription-based doctor on demand? As per WHO figures, there is a shortage of doctors in Nigeria to its growing population, especially in the semi-urban and rural areas. Also, though better than its other African counterparts, the Nigerian health system is still suffering from several drawbacks, especially at the local government level.
It causes a lot of worry for the people who work in far-off places to take care of their elderly parent's health. It is here that subscription-based doctor-on-demand services are changing Nigeria's health services landscape. Innovative companies are offering many subscription services for single or both parents to check elderly patients in the comfort of their homes regularly. Also, they send detailed reports of their health condition to the subscribers to keep track of their progress. How are health care services in Nigeria changing for the better? The health care services in Nigeria have been experiencing progressive deterioration in recent years but are better than in many other African countries. Only 5% of Nigerians can get free medical care from the government through insurance schemes, and others have to depend on private healthcare providers. And most sufferers are older people who are prone more to ailments. And if they live in far-off places than the major urban areas, their situation becomes worse.
Hence to change the health care services in Nigeria, subscription services help older people get timely treatments. Many people leaving their parents to work in far-off places cannot take proper health care of their parents. It puts pressure on their minds not to help their elderly parents take care of their health. But award-winning innovative subscription services with a vast network of hundreds of doctors, labs, and pharmacies give them peace of mind. The doctors, on-demand, visit the parents for health check-ups and treatment regularly. Also, they test older people for any ailments without going to labs. These reports sent to the subscribers will help them monitor their parents' health from anywhere and not worry about them. The above facts and the health care services in Nigeria will convince anyone's mind on its changes for better to take care of elderly patients living in far-off places.
