- W3043346020 abstract "The possibility to use mobile phones to provide affordable, effective and accessible healthcare solutions has continued to attract significant investments in the application of formal m-health schemes in Africa. However, while the formal m-health schemes in Africa are limited and benefited only a handful of people, a majority of individuals are using their own phones to create an informal m-health ecosystem in an attempt to bridge primary healthcare access gaps. This paper draws on qualitative data from a four-year (2012-2016) anthropological study involving marginalised groups in Sierra Leone to document these health-seeking practices along with the benefits and challenges they create in a complex plural health system. It argues that the informal integration of mobile phones into the plural health system offers opportunities for marginalised individuals to search and secure primary healthcare of their choices, but poor network connectivity, high out of pocket maintenance costs, low digital literacy skills, and the lack of policy to streamline and regulate the practices can promise the effectiveness of the informal m-health system. It concludes by offering suggestions for addressing these challenges in the Sierra Leone context." @default.
