Info Hubs

Project Time Frame: 
September 2018 - September 2019
Summary

Info Hubs provide an integrated, standards-compliant, information management platform that harness modern data warehousing, business intelligence and data science functionality, resulting in better information and decision making.

Project Goals

01

Enable a country level overview and a patient level view in one platform

02

Enable better data quality governance

03

An integrated, standards-compliant information management platform

The Digital Square South Africa Information Hubs project led by the National Department of Health and funded by USAID South Africa, feeds into the broader strategy of integrated health information by developing a technology to assist with  centralising health information systems, building upon international best practice while focusing on effective use of data science for health service strengthening.

 

In this way, it may potentially be used for optimising and operationalising information usage for improved service delivery:

  • For HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis (TB) at national and sub-national levels. 

  • Assist the Department of Health to deliver quality healthcare for all South Africans. 

  • Provide a view of operational data cost-effective, manageable and scalable framework.
