New Features, Improved Delivery, Easy Access: AskMary AI’s Advanced Capabilities Bring Telehealth Closer to People

Introduction

Most "digital health" tools are designed by people who have little to no idea about the experiences people in far-reaching communities face when accessing healthcare. AskMary is different. It is built by smart young people who have lived in the remotest parts of Africa and Asia. They understand these experiences because they have lived them themselves.

AskMary is designed for the patient who is tired of waiting on hold and the caregiver who needs an answer at three in the morning.

That is why Mary Health keeps improving the capabilities of our Artificial Intelligence Medical Assistant, AskMary. In our latest update, we have added five new capabilities to this service. I suggest you read them carefully. They are not "features." They are benefits.

The End of the "Telephone Game"

We have introduced a new Appointment Tab. In the old days, to see a doctor, you had to call a receptionist, be put on hold, and negotiate a calendar like a diplomat. No more.

You can now schedule your entire visit on the AskMary platform. It is as simple as booking a table at a good restaurant.

Instant Consultation by AI

AskMary now features an AI-based instant consultation booking. If you have a concern that cannot wait, the system doesn't just give you a "search result." It schedules you.

It is the digital equivalent of a triage nurse who never sleeps and never loses her temper.

A Memory Like an Elephant

There is nothing more irritating than explaining your symptoms twice. We have improved the chat history.

If you start a conversation on your lunch break and need to finish it after dinner, AskMary remembers exactly where you left off. It treats you like an individual, not a ticket number.

Consultations via WhatsApp

The world lives on WhatsApp, so AskMary does too. You can now book live consultations and schedule appointments directly through the app you already use to talk to your grandchildren.

It is health care that meets you where you are, rather than forcing you to come to it.

Security Without the Headache

We have moved to phone-number-based authentication. You do not need to remember a complex password involving your first pet’s name and a special character.

If you have your phone, you have your health records. It is secure, and it is sensible.

Does It Work?

At Mary Health, we believe that the more facts you tell, the more you sell. But in medicine, we aren't selling soap; we are providing peace of mind.

Felix D. Davis, who founded this institution, did not have AI, but he had a "Whole Person" philosophy. We have simply given that philosophy a digital brain.

I have always said: "Never write an advertisement which you wouldn't want your own family to read." I would give this app to my wife. I would use it myself.
