Mediosa launched on August 21, 2017, to make the process of medical diagnostic and healthcare for Nigerians as seamless as possible. It’s an online booking platform where users can discover prices and book laboratory tests and health packages.

How Mediosa works

Mediosa website

When users book their preferred test(s) or health package(s) on the platform, trained medical professionals are assigned to them. The medical professional then visits the user — at user’s preferred location — to get their test samples (blood or urine).

Upon collection, the sample is taken to a partner laboratory for analysis after which result is delivered to the user within 24 to 48 hours.

Mediosa’s edge over physical laboratories is easy accessibility, price comparison feature, and the home delivery service. Also, it claims to offer health services and test faster than the traditional system of laboratory diagnostics.
