Digital Health Platforms
Healthcare industry is well-regarded, as they provide a better and longer life, and help to turn illness into well-being. Though, the healthcare ecosystem is complex, with a number of stakeholders [1] including:
- internal users such as patients, nurse, doctors, technicians
- external users such as policy maker, the general public and researchers
- healthcare facilities being primary health facilities, hospitals
- the range of healthcare-based businesses and services, ranging from laboratories, pharmacies, ambulance services, insurance companies to e.g. nursing care centres, and
- governing bodies being Ministry of health, national institutes for health, and universities
When addressing Digital Health Platforms, the first challenge is to identify the primary focus of the platform, e.g.
- collecting data for decision makers;
- running a hospital;
- ensuring emergency care taking, a.o. to coordinate activities between ambulances and hospitals;
- creating an inventory, e.g. cancer register, for research;
- promoting health information for the end users; or
- supporting a single person with the sensors and information needed.
The Seminar will lift the view on The event topic raises some interesting and oft-debated questions ranging from the simple: “What is a software platform vs. a simple software product?” to the more complex and nuanced: “Should a country choose a single homogenous software platform architecture or an architecture that supports a heterogenous interoperable ecology of choice between many platforms?”
Examples of Digital Health Platforms
The Digital Square Global Goods Handbook does a good job of describing a variety of the digital health global good software platforms available to countries today, addressing a.o.
- Distributed Health Information Platform (DHIS2), an open-source tool for upstream collection of data and creating the basis for decision makers.
- OpenIMIS platform (an open source insurance management platform (Uwe Wahser, GIZ Nepal)
- SORMAS Digital Surveillance and Outbreak Management, GIZ Nigeria and Ghana
- community-level care (e.g. the Community Health Toolkit, CommCare, etc.)
- primary care (e.g. OpenSRP)
- secondary/tertiary care (e.g. OpenMRS, Bahmni, etc.)
- health commodities, pharmaceutical and supply chain (e.g. OpenLMIS)
- health workforce (e.g. iHRIS)
- health financing (e.g. OpenIMIS)
- open standards and interoperability architecture, to connect all of these components (e.g. OpenHIE.)
In addition
- open source solutions such as the VistA EHR platform,
- standards and technology platforms such as OpenEHR,
- commercial platforms such as Cerner or Epic.
