Interswitch Group, a leading African digital payments and commerce company, has reinforced its dedication to transforming healthcare through technology by sponsoring the 2025 Healthcare Federation of Nigeria (HFN) Annual Conference.
Themed “Expanding Access to Quality Healthcare: Transforming Nigeria through Innovation, Partnership, and Sustainability,” the event took place on February 27-28 at the Oriental Hotel, Lagos. It gathered key stakeholders, including policymakers, industry leaders, healthcare professionals, and technology experts, to discuss critical issues such as digital transformation in healthcare financing, technology-driven service delivery, and strategic collaborations for sustainable industry growth.
As a digital payments leader, Interswitch showcased its cutting-edge healthcare solutions, including eClinic, an electronic medical records suite, and its health insurance management systems. The company also highlighted its secure digital payment platforms, designed to help healthcare providers streamline revenue collection, enhance operational efficiency, and improve access to quality care.
Babajide Oyeduntan, Vice President, Business Development and Sales, Interswitch eClat, emphasized the company’s commitment to leveraging technology for healthcare advancements in Nigeria.
“At Interswitch, we recognize the transformative power of technology in driving efficiency across industries. While we have revolutionized payments, we are now extending our expertise to healthcare, enabling providers to enhance productivity, ensure sustainability, and improve patient management through digital solutions. We are excited to be part of this forum to share insights and collaborate with stakeholders to shape the future of healthcare in Nigeria,” Oyeduntan stated.
Beyond its role in the HFN Conference, Interswitch has been instrumental in Nigeria’s healthcare digital transformation. Its recent partnership with the Lagos State Government led to the creation of the Lagos Smart Health Information Platform (Lagos SHIP)—a significant step toward digitizing healthcare services in the state.
Through the integration of digital solutions in healthcare administration and payments, Interswitch continues to enhance service delivery, improve patient experiences, and drive financial sustainability. The company remains a key catalyst for innovation in Nigeria’s healthcare sector.
By consistently supporting industry events like the HFN Conference, Interswitch reaffirms its leadership in advancing digital adoption, promoting financial inclusion, and fostering a tech-driven ecosystem that benefits healthcare providers and patients alike.
