Analysis of ISS clinic in uganda

Could the ISS clinic do with a less complicated less sophisticated system? Yes. They could revert back to using the MOH system of collecting data on paper-based forms and storing them in files in the record room. Clinicians would be glad as they were overwhelmed be the EMR’s new forms and no longer need to input much data. Although the financial costs are significantly lower due to not hiring additional human resource for data research and not purchasing additional hardware and software to maintain the computers, ISS clinic would revert to a highly inefficient process of collecting, filtering and analyzing the patients’ information data. Furthermore, it would be challenging and time-consuming for staff to review data and compile reports for the various stakeholders as they have to be done manually. What more could she do to convince the clinicians and stakeholders of the EMR system’s value? Highlight the benefits

Stakeholders -MOH and stake holders Increase the accuracy of the collected data which would be more effective for operational decisions by MOH. Speeds up the process of aggregating and analyzing clinic data, thereby reducing the time taken to compile reports for the various stakeholders. Reduce the amount of underreporting. Highly useful for the research for different stakeholders.
