Muso works to create a cure for delay because no one should die waiting for health care.

Mali's under-five mortality rate is 11.5%, which is 16 times that of the United States, and pregnancy complications kill one in 27 women. The top killers are malaria, diarrhea, pneumonia and neonatal causes: early access to healthcare can avert nearly all deaths of children under five.

Muso’s model is made of three components:

1. Proactively search for households with pregnant mothers
2. Provide care in the home (i.e. family planning, pregnancy testing and treatment for children with malaria, diarrhea, pneumonia and malnutrition)
3. Accompany children (and related adults) that require more complex care to expanded government-run health centers, where Muso builds infrastructure and trains staff

Studies found that Muso's intervention reduced the under-five mortality10-fold difference, ultimately reaching a rate of 7 per 1000, the same rate as the United States.
