Health can't wait.

About us

Time matters. Faster access to care can save 10x more lives. Muso is a global health non-profit that is revolutionizing how quickly Community Health Workers (CHWs) provide access to care for sick children in Mali. In the areas where Muso operates, we’ve seen a 10x difference in child mortality and a 10x increase in patient access to care. As Muso grows, we’re reaching more patients, faster. To the best of our knowledge, Muso has achieved and maintained the lowest rate of child mortality in sub-Saharan Africa. We estimate the Muso system will enable Ministries of Health to provide universal health coverage at a cost of $24 per person, well within the range of health spending in sub-Saharan Africa and significantly lower than the WHO estimate of $60+ per person covered [1]. The Problem [2] 5,900,000 children died in 2015 before their fifth birthday 300,000 women did not survive pregnancy or childbirth 90% of Malian women do not access family planning 13x higher maternal mortality rate in Mali than in the US 59% of Malian women do not access basic prenatal care during pregnancy Muso Model A reactive model is not enough and early access to care is crucial to survival. The Muso Model is a community-led health system that includes three critical steps in reaching and treating patients faster, within hours of symptom onset: 1. Proactive Search: CHWs search for patients through door-to-door home visits to connect them with care early. 2. Doorstep Care: CHWs provide a package of life-saving health care services in the home. 3. Rapid Access Clinics: Muso removes point-of-care fees, builds infrastructure, and trains staff, so that government clinics can provide universal, early access to care.

    On the sidelines of #UNGA79, our CEO, Dr. Ari Johnson, and our Chief Partnerships Officer, Nazanine Nasseri Scheuer, participated in a side event in New York on September 23rd, organized by the Community Health Impact Coalition (CHIC). Titled, "Securing the Future with proCHWs : A Timeless Investment in Health for All," this high-level gathering effectively positioned professional Community Health Workers (proCHWs) as a strategic and cost-effective investment in achieving global health goals. The event provided a unique opportunity to learn from CHW Advocates on the frontlines of healthcare delivery, policymakers who are transforming their national health systems through CHW programs, and funders fostering an enabling environment for impactful change. #proCHWs #HEALTHACANTWAIT #CHIC #UNGA79

    Impact Advisor & Investor | Entrepreneur | Board Director 🌈

    Social impact friends - we need help finding the world’s best social entrepreneurs. Please refer great folks, and share widely! 🙏 *also, we close nominations Oct 15 so please act quick! Mulago Fellows are irrepressible, and have a solution (and organization!) that could make a big dent in a big problem. For our Henry Arnhold Fellowship, we look for people pioneering effective ways to protect nature (forests, rivers, oceans, reefs and grasslands) and the people who live there. Our Rainer Arnhold Fellows have solutions to problems faced by the poor (think health, education, agriculture, livelihoods, water and sanitation) We’re particularly on the hunt for fellows who have: - An open mind and big ambition! - An organization — nonprofit or for-profit — up and running, even if small or early. It must be able to accept grant money from the United States. - A full-time role as the senior decision-maker (most often the Executive Director or CEO). - The closer the leader is to the problem and the communities they serve, the better! Some of our biggest hits have been solutions like: - Community playbook for fisheries rehabilitation - Blue Ventures - Systematic approach to rehabilitation of village commons - Foundation For Ecological Security (FES) - Getting indigenous peoples' status as municipalities - Gaia Amazonas Foundation - Bundle of services for smallholder farmers - One Acre Fund - Community health workers - Last Mile Health, Muso, Lwala Community Alliance, and a range of other Community Health Impact Coalition organizations - Community volunteers to enroll girls in school - Educate Girls - and of course, Last Mile trailbridges - Bridges to Prosperity If you know someone who fits the bill, please send them our way. We dig into every single recommendation. See the links in the comments to nominate someone.

    Muso à l’AGNU Lors de la 79e session de l'Assemblée générale des United Nations à New York, notre Directeur Général, Dr. Ari Johnson, a rencontré le Colonel Assa Badiallo Touré, Ministre de la Santé et du Développement social du #Mali. Cette rencontre bilatérale a constitué une occasion importante de discuter des moyens de renforcer la collaboration entre Muso et le Ministère, en particulier concernant les initiatives visant à améliorer l'accès aux services de santé primaire dans les zones difficiles d’accès. Ensemble, ils ont exploré des solutions pour réduire les coûts des soins de santé pour les patients et se sont engagés à réaliser la vision du Ministre de « faire de la santé et du développement social un vecteur de paix ». #AGNU79 #LASANTEAVANTTOUT

    After training the CHW supervisors and stock managers, it is now the turn of 250 CHWs to benefit from a training session. From October 1st to 4th, the CHWs will be formed by Muso’s Learning and Innovation department on the use of protocols and forms for managing health supplies at the community level in the health areas of Bamako (Yirimadio and Bakorobabougou). This ongoing training focuses on the use of the Community Health Toolkit and will equip the CHWs with the necessary tools for the optimal management of supply, distribution, and dispensing of essential health products. #CommunityHealth #formation #Muso
