Carib Health Chat will end on July 1, 2026

As of July 1, 2026, the Carib Health chat function will no longer be available.

Over the past period, Carib Health has been used as a pilot project to explore whether digital communication through this app could be a valuable addition to primary healthcare in the Caribbean region. ZJCN has decided to discontinue funding for this project, which means that the Carib Health chat function will end on July 1, 2026.

This does not mean that we will no longer be available digitally.
You can continue to contact us online via WhatsApp:

BMC: +599 777 3297
CMC: +599 777 3296

Through WhatsApp, your questions will be answered by our doctor’s assistants, just as you are used to.

We believe it is important that you can reach us easily and will therefore continue to be available through digital channels.

Thank you for using Carib Health.
