  abstract = {{B}ackground : {T}he telephone is being put to work in the quest for universal health coverage in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica. {M}ultiple mobile health pilot projects are being deployed. {T}he use of mobile technologies including citizens in the formulation, analysis, and revision of public health policies in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica is recent. {T}his citizen m-participation could influence the democratic engagement of citizens and leaders in the planning, budgeting, and transparency of local governance processes of health systems. {M}ethods : {W}e conducted a scoping review. {A} total of 995 papers were initially identified, 37 documents were finally included in the final synthesis after a review of the abstract and full text by two researchers. {R}esults : {D}espite multiple challenges, the social, technological, and instrumental feasibility of citizen m-participation in health decision-making processes is real. {T}he documents highlight the contribution of m-{C}itizen {P}articipation to the ongoing construction of a robust health democracy. {H}owever, government commitment and leadership for this innovation remain weak. {T}his slows down the processes of inclusion and empowerment of patients on their health needs. {C}onclusions : {E}vidence suggests that citizen m-participation is relevant to the inclusion of citizens in health decision-making processes. {H}owever, research is limited. {W}e recommend participatory action research mechanisms focused on citizen inclusion in health decision-making processes in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica to expand the knowledge base on this innovation.},
