Health

Background

In the Ministry of Health, the Fund assists health facilities with connectivity of the Health Management Information Systems (HMSI) to the central database. This system helps Government to improve healthcare and treatment services for people in need at community level. The system further advances adherence among clients receiving treatment through the community-based differentiated care model as well as improve retention of clients in care and treatment services through SMS notification for treatment refill visits.

Objective

The objective is to assist the Ministry of Health in its drive to digitalise the health sector with the aim of improved record keeping, simultaneous effective monitoring of diseases outbreaks, improved communication and information tools between health centres.

Status

Data from the Ministry of Health – HMIS shows that the country has 341 health facilities both in the public and private sector, of which 105 (30.1%) do not have a WAN connection, and 242 have a connected LAN status. To date, 55 of these facilities were connected through the support of USOF on EPTC/microwave connection, while others were funded by the health facility, government, USAID or Global Fund.
