Today, Hon. Lady Justice Nyaundi Patricia Mande, SC delivered one of the most consequential digital health judgments in Kenya’s history at the Milimani High Court, ordering the suspension of Rology Medical Kenya Ltd’s operations until duly registered and compliant with Kenyan medical, digital health and data protection laws.
The petition by officials of the Kenya Association of Radiologists challenged the teleradiology platform that served over 60,000 patients across more than 40 public health facilities while operating outside the established regulatory framework. Rology Medical Kenya Ltd is the local affiliate of Rology Inc, a foreign AI-assisted teleradiology platform headquartered in Egypt. The Petitioners contend it purports to offer radiology services in Kenya without the requisite regulatory approvals.
The Court held that KMPDC has a constitutional and statutory duty to register and regulate all providers of medical services, including digital platforms. It found the regulatory gap exposed patients to potential risks relating to healthcare quality, privacy, consumer protection and accountability. The Court affirmed that the Digital Health Act remains in force and digital health providers cannot rely on regulatory gaps to operate outside Kenyan law.
Essentially the court is saying that innovation is welcome - regulation is mandatory - being digital does not exempt a healthcare provider from licensing, professional oversight, patient consent requirements, data protection obligations, accountability or compliance with Kenyan law.
The implications extend far beyond one company. This judgment will likely influence the future regulation of telemedicine, teleradiology, telepathology, AI-assisted diagnostics, remote specialist consultations, cross-border healthcare services and digital health platforms.
The most important question is not whether technology should be used in healthcare, but who is accountable when patient care is affected.
This judgment does not appear to be a rejection of innovation. It is a powerful affirmation that innovation must operate within constitutional and statutory guardrails protecting patients, privacy, quality, transparency and professional accountability.
For hospitals, diagnostic centers including laboratories, healthcare providers, digital health startups, investors and regulators, the message is clear: conduct compliance reviews now. Kenya’s digital health future remains bright, but it must be built on trust, patient protection, accountability and the rule of law.

-Total failure by WPP representatives to attend is disrepectful to local shareholders
-3 Directors proposed for election by WPP also did not show up to be introduced. WTF.

@iam_igumira As much as the employer is agitated, and reasonably so, he should understand that this is beyond the employee.
Both the employer and the employee need help. Hope they find a way to recover from this. It is possible.
If EACC were to raid my home, this is what they will find. I work for every single cent I earn! Beyond taxes, I still contribute in cash + kind to build public institutions. What happened to honest, hard working, principled + altruistic Kenyans? Kshs 63m under the bed? No!
@Guantai_m@ekmokaya We appreciate your input, but this is not about Kenya, but Africa.
As for Kenya, it joined the list recently, why PayPal has been behaving this way since 2008. So ,sit down on this.
I remember when Wayne Rooney, last month, predicted that Arsenal would win both English Premier League and Champions.
If it comes to pass, then he is a great football pundit and a seer.
Nayo mimi you cannot tell me to relax ati my daughter became ashes because of negligence.
The very least here is resignations and prosecutions. Yaani, proper deterrence to this upuzi and gross incompetence that is in Kenya's Education system.
NEW: Kenya introduced “enhanced” maternity care in Social Health Authority. Then deliveries in hospitals started declining.
