Muso partners with governments to design, test, and scale evidence-based strategies for rapid, universal health care.muso's rapid health care model is designed to save lives by reaching patients early in the course of their illness and connecting them to a suite of care in the home or clinic, all without out-of-pocket fees. Muso directly serves 400,000 patients in mali and cote d'ivoire. Research has documented that communities where Muso works in mali, which previously had some of the world's highest child death rates, achieved and sustained child death rates lower than any country in sub-saharan africa. To transform national health systems, Muso supports the governments of mali and cote d'ivoire's efforts to connect their 46 million citizens with rapid, universal health care, and end maternal and child mortality.

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
