This episode explores the unique origins of electronic medical record (EMR) system Tamanu, with guests Edwin Monk-Fromont and Megan Lane from Beyond Essential Systems. 

Tamanu was designed with a people-first approach, aimed at enhancing healthcare delivery in low-resource settings across the Pacific.
