Lab Tests at Home or Office in Tanzania , Healthcare That Comes to You

Getting a laboratory test should not mean spending hours travelling, waiting in queues, or moving between laboratories and doctors.

Through our partnership with Thyrocare Laboratories (Tanzania) Limited , TanzMED makes laboratory testing more convenient by allowing you to book lab tests from your home, office, or another convenient location. A trained technician comes to you for sample collection, and your results are securely delivered directly to your TanzMED Medical Records.

Whether you live in Tanzania, are travelling for business, or are visiting Tanzania as a tourist, TanzMED gives you a simpler way to access laboratory services and connect your results with medical professionals all from one platform. We have started in Dar es Salaam and expected to expand to other cities.

Book a Lab Test From Wherever You Are

With TanzMED, you can select the laboratory test or health checkup package you need, choose a convenient date and time, make payment, and arrange sample collection.

There is no need to visit multiple facilities just to complete a routine health check.

Once your sample has been collected and processed, your results are made available digitally within your TanzMED account, allowing you to keep your health information organized and accessible when you need it.

More Than Individual Lab Tests

Sometimes you know exactly which laboratory test you need. At other times, you simply want to understand your general health or monitor specific health risks.

That is why TanzMED offers pre-defined health screening packages designed around different health needs and goals.

Available packages include options such as:

  • Women's Health Checkups

  • Men's Health Checkups

  • Caregiver Health Checkups

  • Preventive health screening packages

  • General wellness checkups

  • Other over 800 tests

 

Your Results Stay Connected to Your Healthcare

Receiving a laboratory report is only one part of healthcare. Understanding what the results mean and knowing what to do next is equally important.

TanzMED connects laboratory testing with the wider healthcare ecosystem.

After receiving your results, you can choose a doctor through TanzMED and securely share your laboratory results for review and consultation.

You remain in control of access to your health information. Doctor access can be withdrawn when you choose, and access can be limited once the consultation has been completed.

This means your laboratory results can move with you without giving permanent access to your medical information.

Keep and Share Your Medical Records Securely

Your laboratory reports can be stored within TanzMED Medical Records, helping you build a digital history of your healthcare information over time.

You can also share selected results with people or healthcare providers outside the TanzMED network when necessary.

The decision remains yours.

Whether you are seeking a second medical opinion, continuing treatment with another healthcare provider, travelling abroad, or keeping records for future reference, TanzMED gives you greater control over how your medical information is accessed and shared.

Convenient Lab Testing for Tourists Visiting Tanzania

Healthcare needs do not stop when you travel.

Visitors to Tanzania may occasionally need laboratory testing because of illness, ongoing medical monitoring, follow-up investigations, or routine health requirements.

Instead of trying to identify laboratories and navigate an unfamiliar healthcare system, tourists using TanzMED can access laboratory testing through a single digital platform.

You can arrange sample collection from a convenient location, receive your laboratory results digitally, keep them inside TanzMED Medical Records, and share them with a doctor for further review when required.

For international travellers, this can make accessing healthcare in Tanzania significantly easier and more organized.

Pay Easily Using Local or International Payment Methods

TanzMED has integrated digital payment options designed for both local and international users.

Payments can be made using:

Visa and Mastercard, as well as supported local mobile payment platforms available across Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda.

This makes the service convenient not only for Tanzanians but also for East African users, expatriates, business travellers, and international visitors.

Why TanzMED Is Different

TanzMED is not simply a laboratory booking platform.

The difference is the ecosystem around the laboratory service.

You can move from:

Booking a test → Sample collection → Digital results → Medical records → Doctor consultation → Follow-up care

without having to manage different disconnected healthcare platforms.

Within the wider TanzMED ecosystem, users can access healthcare professionals, appointments, medical records, health information and other digital health services from one place.

Our goal is simple: make healthcare easier to access, easier to understand, and easier to manage.

Take Control of Your Health

Whether you need a routine health check, want to monitor a specific health condition, are supporting the health of someone you care for, or simply want the convenience of having laboratory testing come to you, TanzMED gives you a more convenient way to get started.

Book your lab test or health checkup package through TanzMED and let healthcare come to you.
