View Award Abstract

PEPFAR has made significant investments in Health Information Systems (HIS) that have led to broad uptake of eHealth systems. However, HIS were planned and developed based on country-specific needs and available capacity; the absence of strategic plans led to a proliferation of varied and unlinked systems that lack interoperability. Epidemic monitoring requires collection, integration, and linkage of data from multiple sources, which are necessary for optimal patient management, cascade analysis, HIV case-based surveillance (CBS), and accurate reporting. In addition, successful eHealth strategies require a skilled, experienced, and sustainable health informatics (HI) workforce. In this application we propose to improve overall HIS and HI capacity in CDC/PEPFAR-supported countries to increase collection and uptake of health information, improve clinical outcomes, support HIV surveillance, and help countries achieve 95-95-95 targets. We will focus on four core strategies: (1) develop and implement standards-based interoperability between electronic systems to improve data linkage; (2) develop national sustainable, country-owned, and costed HIS masterplans; (3) build HI human resources and skills to sustain HIS; and (4) evaluate the effectiveness of HIS in improving health outcomes. These strategies will result in: increased in-country capacity and ownership for HIS design, implementation, and evaluation; interoperability of HIS ensured through use of international standards (e.g., HL7, ICD and LOINC) and open-source interoperability frameworks (e.g., OpenHIE); improved data linkage to support programs and CBS through developing unique identifiers (UID) while protecting patients’ privacy and confidentiality; nationally owned and costed eHealth strategies backed by relevant policies; increased in-country ability to train, educate, and sustain an HI workforce with relevant skills and competencies; the development of accredited training programs; and increased data use for program improvement and measuring progress towards epidemic control. UCSF, with its extensive experience in strategic information (SI) and HI, brings a robust understanding of what is necessary to develop a well-functioning HIS ecosystem and what data are required of HIS at all levels to make informed decisions. UCSF will lead the Health Information System Technical Assistance Consortium (HISTAC), to address the above objectives, and whose members include the Makerere University School of Public Health, the University of Nairobi, and the Palladium Group. All partners have successfully worked in PEPFAR-funded countries and collaborated with CDC through cooperative agreements. UCSF currently provides technical assistance (TA) in SI and HIS to nearly 20 PEPFAR-supported countries. Collectively, HISTAC has worked in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean to support successful HIS implementation, develop polices and standards, and build the capacity of the HI workforce through partnerships and formal training courses. We will establish four regional offices (Asia, Caribbean, West Africa, and East/Southern Africa) staffed by multi-disciplinary teams that will support PEPFAR countries in their regions and expand offices and the workforce as needed. HISTAC will provide TA for standards-based data exchanges, UID, and Master Patient Indices. We will develop HIS training curricula for certified and degree-granting courses, plus shorter term pre- and in-service training delivered through a variety of platforms. We will implement systems that will support HIV CBS and national data repositories. We will provide TA on eHealth strategies and policies and guide HIS design, development, and implementation and ensure data security and patient confidentiality. Finally, we will propose evaluations of HIS, the results of which can identify efficiencies and be incorporated into strategies. HISTAC has the experience and skills to meet all the goals and activities defined in this NOFO.
