Dr. Binyam Fekadu, Country Representative, JSI, Dr. Lia Tedesse, Minister of Health, Ethiopia, Michael Froman, Vice Chairman and President, Strategic Growth for Mastercard, and Tito Rwamushaija, Senior Country Manager, Gavi, at the signing ceremony in Addis Ababa today, announcing a partnership to implement the Mastercard Wellness Pass solution that will bring efficiency to healthcare tracking and offline portability of health records in the most marginalized communities.
Wellness Pass is an interoperable and offline portable healthcare credential – accessible within a trusted network that creates continuity of care by allowing a patient’s medical data to be stored offline and travel with them on their Mastercard Community Pass chip card, which every patient receives from participating health facilities when they get their first vaccine or health service.
Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, and Mastercard have been partnered since 2018, to deploy the Mastercard Wellness Pass to eligible countries, with the aim to not only deliver vaccines to millions of individuals, but also, using Mastercard’s technology, enable digitization of health records in the form of contactless cards.
