Attributes of a well-functioning HIS

A

1) G eneration of individual-level, facility-based and population-based data from multiple sources:
• public health surveillance platforms, • medical records, • Civil registration data, • household surveys, • censuses • health service coverage, • health system input data (e.g., human resources, health infrastructure, and financing).
2) Capacity to detect, investigate, communicate, and contain events that threaten public health security at the place and as soon as they occur.
3) Ability to synthesize information and apply this know ledge. A good HIS • improves both demand for and supply and use of data – in clinical • management, financing, planning, and implementation
