The SPICE platform is designed to transform primary care delivery in resource-constrained settings. It empowers community health workers by equipping them with the necessary tools to conduct assessments for various health conditions, including non-communicable diseases (NCDs), malaria, maternal and child health, among others. The assessment process utilizes a risk algorithm to determine whether patients need further medical attention based on their diagnosed conditions. Assessment can occur online and offline, providing flexibility and accessibility for health screeners and community health workers.
