Health institutions worldwide, including the World Health Organization (WHO), have recognised that adoption and innovative use of information from electronic medical records will be necessary to provide equitable care to the growing population of the world. Uganda is committed to meeting this goal, however, there are challenges to developing and implementing electronic health record data capture and analysis systems, especially as implementation of these systems have mostly occurred in high-income countries where challenges are different. In this project, we will assess whether or not Uganda is ready to implement an electronic health record data capture system at the point of care that can centrally process information through statistical analysis and provide important information to care providers and public health practitioners to support healthcare delivery. This assessment involves collecting information from key stakeholders about barriers, facilitators, costs and other 'readiness' factors, such as acceptability and training of the healthcare professionals who will enter data into the system. We will map these measures to known models of electronic health record adoption readiness and technology adoption success. We will also assess the opinions of the community on how their health information should be handled and used. Additionally, we will look at the technology components of this system that may already exists and determine the costs to provide all necessary components. Finally, we conduct analyses to determine how long it will take to see benefits in terms of cost savings in healthcare provision. The Ministry of Health in Uganda has recommended a 'stepped' approach to adopting electronic health records, we will therefore focus on areas of greatest concern to the Ministry of Health. While Uganda has a number of important health concerns, such as child and maternal health and cancer, we will focus predominantly on malaria and HIV, and also look at scope for other infections. The reason for this choice is that these infections are still some of the leading health problems in Uganda, and they are treatable. This means that if successful implementation of electronic health record data capture occurred, combined with faster, more efficient and effective treatment due to processing those data and providing key information, such as who to target for testing and treatment, we could reduce costs to the health system and increase human health. The findings of the study will be shared with the scientific community and provided to the Uganda Ministry of Health as a report. The Ministry of Health plans to use this report as a guide to developing their electronic medical record and information analysis platform.
