What sureCova Means for Doctors.

Build your own online practice. Earn in local and foreign currencies.

 

From the CEO’s Desk

If you’re a doctor, you’ve probably experienced this more times than you can count.

Just after a consultation or before a patient is discharged, they ask for your phone number. By this point, they have listened to your medical advice, built trust in you, and simply want to continue their care with the doctor who now knows them.

Most of us want to help.

The problem is that there has never been a simple, legal, documented, and fairly compensated way to continue caring for patients outside the hospital. And our personal phone numbers are supposed to be that. Personal. Once they become a channel for patient care, the boundaries between our professional and personal lives quickly disappear.

So, more often than not, we say no.

The times we do say yes, WhatsApp becomes an informal, unpaid clinic. Patients send laboratory results, ask whether new symptoms are normal, request prescription advice, and expect responses at all hours of the day.

But medicine is a profession, not an informal chat service.

Giving personal phone numbers to hundreds of patients is not sustainable. Clinical advice should be documented and patient privacy should be protected. Importantly, doctors deserve to be compensated for the time they spend providing follow-up care. 

Yet for many years, there has been no simple way to do all of that.

That is exactly why we built sureCova.

Continue caring for your patients.

sureCova allows doctors to stay connected to their patients long after they leave the hospital.

Instead of ending the relationship at discharge, you can continue guiding your patients through the weeks, months, and sometimes years that follow.

This creates an entirely new way to care for your patients, especially those living with chronic diseases. Rather than losing touch after discharge, you continue supporting your patients by reviewing laboratory results, answering questions, adjusting medications when needed, providing monthly reviews and monitoring their progress over time on paid subscriptions.

For doctors, it means building a sustainable online practice around the relationships you’ve already earned. For patients, it means continuity of care.

Everyone benefits.

Build Your Own Patient Community

It’s time to build your own patient community, locally and globally.

Patients can subscribe to you directly through the sureCova marketplace from anywhere in the world. As your reputation grows, your practice is no longer limited to the city or country where you work.

For the first time, sureCova’s cross border model (two-doctor model), makes it possible for doctors to continue caring for patients in other countries, while respecting the healthcare regulations of every country involved.

This opens new opportunities, especially for specialist doctors. Your knowledge, experience, and expertise should no longer be confined by geography. You can build a professional online practice and earn in both local and foreign currencies while continuing to care for the patients who trust you.

Every consultation on sureCova is documented. Communication happens in a secure environment designed specifically for healthcare, with patient privacy, medical ethics, and professional standards at its core.

You Are in Control of Your Practice

sureCova gives you the freedom to build an online practice around your schedule.

You decide your own monthly subscription fee, with a minimum starting price of ₦10,000 (for Nigeria). Specialists and consultants can charge higher subscription fees based on their expertise, experience, and the value they provide to patients.

You also set your pricing separately for local and international patients. Patients in your own country see your local subscription fee, while patients from other countries see your dollar international price. This allows you to price appropriately at home and creates opportunity to earn from a global patient community.

You set your own clinic hours and decide when you are available to provide follow-up care. Whether you want to see patients for one hour each evening, a few hours in the morning, only on weekends, or alongside your existing hospital practice.

You also decide how many patients you want on your panel. Whether you prefer a small number of patients receiving highly personalized care or a larger practice, the choice is entirely yours.

Your pricing. Your schedule. Your patient panel. Your practice.

We don’t employ doctors, we empower doctors to build their own digital practice.

Unlike traditional telemedicine platforms where doctors work shifts for the platform, your patients subscribe to you and you own your own community.

 

Cross-Border Care: Our Two-Doctor Model

sureCova works with locally licensed ‘prescribing’ doctors in every country where we operate, so that care can safely cross borders without ever breaking the law.

When a doctor cares for a patient outside their own country, a locally licensed doctor (we call this a Prescribing Doctor) is involved to make sure everything issued to that patient meets the regulations of the patient’s country. He reviews and authorizes the prescription so it becomes valid in patient’s home country.

To make collaboration seamless, sureCova provides a secure communication channel between the personal doctor and the prescribing doctor. Whenever clarification is needed, both doctors can discuss the patient’s condition, treatment plan, or prescription before it is authorized. But the relationship always remains between the patient and their personal doctor. The local doctor’s role is simply to keep everything safe, legal, and properly documented.

We believe this model removes one of the biggest barriers to global continuity of care. For the first time, doctors can continue caring for their patients across countries through a structured system that respects healthcare regulations while preserving the trusted doctor-patient relationship.

AI That Works Alongside You

We believe AI will not replace personal care. But technology should reduce your workload, not add to it.

That is why every consultation on sureCova is supported by AI designed to help you work more efficiently. Instead of spending valuable time on repetitive administrative tasks, you can focus on what matters most: caring for your patients and making clinical decisions.

AI assists by helping organize clinical information, preparing documentation, surfacing relevant patient history, and reducing administrative work.

It helps organise your practice so you spend less time searching for information and more time practising medicine while your patients benefit from quicker responses and better continuity of care.

Medicine has always been built on relationships. Technology should strengthen those relationships, not replace them.

 

That is what sureCova means for doctors.
