Ovana

Making hypertension visible and controllable.

We partner with healthcare organisations, insurers, employers, NGOs, and governments to run hypertension care programmes at scale across Africa.

Over 1 billion people live with hypertension worldwide. In Africa, the problem goes beyond awareness — it's access to regular monitoring, inconsistent medication, and fragmented care systems that only engage patients during acute visits.

Ovana is building the infrastructure for hypertension control.

We combine physical BP checkpoints at pharmacies and clinics with a simple tracking app — giving institutions the tools to run hypertension care programmes that reach thousands of people, consistently.

The Hypertension Care Campaign

For providers

Partner with us to deliver chronic care.

Pharmacies and clinics join the Ovana network to track hypertension patients, manage medication cycles, and become active checkpoints in a broader care system.

Patients miss medication. Refills slip. Tracking is manual. Engagement ends at the counter. Patients fall through the cracks.

1

Patient tracking

Profiles, medication, prescriptions, and history in one place.

2

Refill management

See who's due, who's late, and prompt returns.

3

Stay connected

Reminders and follow-ups that keep patients engaged.

4

Better outcomes

Improved consistency, monitoring, and patient relationships.

Visibility

Know who needs attention.

Retention

Bring patients back consistently.

Simplicity

Replace paper, memory, and WhatsApp.

Pharmacies

Track patients and manage refills.

Doctors & clinics

Monitor patients and improve continuity of care.

For organisations

Partner with us to run hypertension care at scale.

We work with healthcare organisations, insurers, employers, NGOs, and governments to deliver continuous hypertension care across their populations — through accessible BP checks, a simple app, and consistent engagement.

Most people don't check their BP regularly. Medication is inconsistent. Issues are caught too late. Costs rise from avoidable complications.

You can't manage what you can't see.

1

BP checkpoints

Members check BP at partner pharmacies and clinics. No personal devices needed.

2

Continuous tracking

Members track BP, medication, and habits in the Ovana app.

3

Consistent engagement

Reminders, habit tracking, and ongoing prompts keep members on course.

4

Early intervention

Act when BP worsens, medication is missed, or engagement drops.

Visibility

Who's on track. Who's at risk. Who needs help.

Better outcomes

Improved consistency, BP control, and health outcomes.

Cost reduction

Fewer emergencies, hospitalisations, and claims.

Scale

Thousands of members, multiple locations, different regions.

Insurers

Reduce claims through better consistency and early intervention.

Employers

Support workforce health and reduce productivity loss.

Governments

Deliver scalable population health programmes.

Let's build a partnership.

The challenge

A silent epidemic.

Hypertension is the leading cause of premature death worldwide. And it's getting worse — fastest in Africa.

1.4B

Adults live with hypertension globally

44%

Don't know they have it

7%

Of Africans with hypertension have it under control

The problem isn't just awareness. It's the gap between knowing and doing.

The campaign

Three behaviours. Done consistently. At scale.

Ovana is leading a campaign to close the gap between knowing and doing — by helping people do three simple things consistently.

01

Check blood pressure more often.

Accessible checkpoints at pharmacies and clinics. No devices required. No appointments needed.

02

Improve daily habits.

Nudges and tracking for diet, hydration, movement, and stress. Habits that shape outcomes.

03

Stay consistent with medication.

Reminders, refill alerts, and delivery support. The single biggest driver of BP control.

The system

How it works.

Physical checkpoints. A simple app. Consistent engagement. All tied together into one continuous system.

Physical checkpoints

Partner pharmacies and clinics become BP check locations across your network. Members walk in, check, and go.

Ovana app

Members track BP, medication, habits, and progress. Data flows into a continuous personal health record.

Consistent engagement

Reminders, outreach, and intervention when members fall off track. Keeps the behaviours going, week after week.

The partnership

Why partner with us.

We bring the infrastructure. You bring the population. Together we close the gap.

Scale

Run the campaign across thousands of members. One platform. Multiple touchpoints across pharmacies, clinics, and the app.

Accessibility

No devices or data plans required. Pharmacy checkpoints and a WhatsApp-friendly experience built for the realities of African healthcare.

Evidence

Continuous data on BP readings, medication consistency, and habit engagement across your population — not just one-off screening numbers.

Impact

Help more people stay healthy. Reduce emergencies and hospitalisations. Lower long-term costs to your organisation and the health system.

Partnerships

About Ovana

A health organisation fighting hypertension.

We partner with healthcare organisations, insurers, employers, NGOs, and governments to make hypertension visible and controllable across Africa.

Ovana is a mission-driven health company.

We exist to solve one problem: the hypertension crisis quietly unfolding across Africa. We do it by partnering with the institutions best placed to reach people at scale — and by building the infrastructure that makes those partnerships work.

Most people don't own a BP monitor. Medication is inconsistent. Healthcare systems only engage patients during acute visits. Hypertension stays invisible until it becomes an emergency.

We combine physical BP checkpoints at pharmacies and clinics with a simple tracking app. Our partners — healthcare organisations, insurers, employers, NGOs, and governments — use this infrastructure to run hypertension care programmes at population scale.

The patient checks in. The data flows. Everyone who needs visibility gets it.

Hypertension is not a technology problem. It's a coordination problem.

The tools to control it already exist — blood pressure monitors, effective medication, simple lifestyle changes. What's missing is the infrastructure to connect people to those tools, consistently, at scale.

That infrastructure doesn't come from another app. It comes from pharmacies that already sit in every neighbourhood. From clinics that patients already trust. From institutions that already reach populations — insurers, employers, governments, foundations.

Our role is to make all of them work together.

Mission

To make hypertension visible and controllable for every person in Africa.

Vision

To build the infrastructure for hypertension control — and scale it globally.
