Review of EMR Systems Towards Standardization
The MOH in Kenya recently launched a report that describes a country-wide activity where 17 EMR systems were reviewed against Standards and Guidelines for EMR Systems in Kenya. This activity had several objectives key of which was to use the results from the review exercise to advice the MOH on system(s) to invest in for implementation at public health facilities in Kenya. Having been part of this process, it has been very exciting and there's even more fun lying ahead of us.
How have other countries traveled this road and what has been your experiences?
