FAQs

Common questions

How does the diaspora wallet work?

Diaspora sponsors top up a Vigil wallet via Stripe (international cards) or M-Pesa. They assign health budgets to named beneficiaries. When the beneficiary visits a Buni-connected facility, costs are settled from the wallet in real time.

Can Vigil integrate with our existing claims system?

Yes. Vigil exposes REST APIs for claim ingestion and can be deployed as a module alongside existing core systems on enterprise plans.

Is Vigil approved by the Insurance Regulatory Authority?

Vigil produces all IRA-required management information reports. Formal regulatory approval for insurance operations remains with your company.

How does fraud detection work?

Vigil scores every claim against 40+ fraud indicators trained on East African claims data. Flagged claims are routed to a human review queue before payment.
