If you want to fix global healthcare, start in Africa. Improving theirs even to the broken state of Western's deserves the "fixing global healthcare" banner much more than what you propose.
Dozzie, Africa is certainly on the list—it has the "advantage" of not being broken to the extent that western healthcare is, so in this case a clean slate might be the answer.
You may find it much harder to bring any organized healthcare there than to convince already established structures to follow the idea of tracking metrics on human body. It may not be as simple as throwing bunch of gadgets and applications at the problem, which is what I understand you're proposing.
