Working a major mobile provided in Uganda (MTN), the medical call center uses a premium number (0902900800) for the Medical Call Centre, which offers Ugandans 24-hour health care counseling via a low cost mobile service. The lack of primary consultation is a factor which adds to Uganda’s high morbidity and mortality rates.
