How it works

From booking to a validated result

Synk Health coordinates the whole screening journey between you, a collection centre and an accredited partner laboratory.

The member journey

Everything a member does happens in the Synk mobile app.

1

Choose a package

Browse Synk Check packages with plain-language descriptions and USD pricing — no hidden lab fees.

2

Pick a time and place

Select a partner collection centre near you, or request home collection where the lab supports it.

3

Pay securely

Pay upfront with MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash, AirtelTigo Money or card. Orders reach the lab pre-paid.

4

Give your sample

The lab logs your specimen against a tracked sample ID the moment it is collected.

5

Lab analysis

Your sample moves through received, in analysis and completed states you can follow in the app.

6

Validated release

A qualified reviewer validates the result before it is released to your Health Passport.

What partner labs do

  • Receive pre-paid, pre-authorised orders in the lab portal queue
  • Log specimens with type, priority and collection time
  • Enter structured results or attach a signed PDF report
  • Flag abnormal and critical values for escalation before release
  • Update order status so members always see accurate progress
  • Reconcile payouts automatically against completed orders

Clinical governance

Nothing reaches a member's Health Passport without a human sign-off.

Draft until validated

Every result enters the portal as a draft, is checked against reference ranges, and must be explicitly marked validated by an authorised reviewer before a member can see it.

Critical values escalate

Values outside critical thresholds are visually flagged and routed to an escalation step rather than being released silently. Labs record who validated a result and when.

Audited, never interpreted

Every result carries the disclaimer 'Reported as received from the laboratory — requires professional interpretation.' Synk Health does not interpret, diagnose, or advise on results.
