CURA

Online pediatric and emergency telemedicine platform

Overview

Cura.sa is an online healthcare platform in Saudi Arabia that connects patients with specialized medical professionals, focusing on pediatric and emergency care. It lets users book appointments and have video consultations with doctors across specialties such as pediatric gastroenterology, pediatric surgery, emergency medicine, and obstetrics/gynecology. The service operates on a fee-for-service model where patients pay per consultation, with prices listed for each doctor to ensure upfront transparency. Patients can read and leave reviews, helping others choose providers. Cura.sa differentiates itself by concentrating on children’s and urgent care through a telemedicine format in Saudi Arabia, offering clear pricing and a straightforward booking-and-consultation experience. Its goal is to make specialized medical advice and consultations more accessible and convenient for families and individuals needing urgent care, delivered from home.

Simplify's take

What believers are saying

  • CURA launched insurer and hospital platforms in October 2026, expanding beyond B2C.
  • CURA claims partnerships with five largest Saudi insurers and more than 600,000 users.
  • The Saudi German Hospital Group partnership broadens distribution into high-acuity care channels.

What critics are saying

  • SANAR, Altibbi, Bupa Arabia, and Dr. Sulaiman Al Habib squeeze pricing relentlessly.
  • White-label contracts face renewal risk if insurers build in-house portals by 2027.
  • If Saudi payers centralize on larger platforms, CURA becomes a replaceable middleware vendor.

What makes CURA unique

  • CURA is MOH-licensed, license 1400005491, with telemedicine-policy influence in Saudi Arabia.
  • CURA sells white-label SaaS for insurers, hospitals, and clinics, not only consumer visits.
  • CURA reports 7,000 doctors, 130 laboratories, and 1,148 pharmacies across Saudi networks.
