Abstract:With support from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), through MEASURE Evaluation, IntraHealth International developed a prototypical client registry (CR) informed by stakeholders in Uganda, including the Ministry of Health (MOH) and the Central Public Health Laboratory (CPHL), as well as technical teams at the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and USAID. OpenCR is an open source and standards-based client registry. A client registry facilitates the exchange of patient information between disparate systems and holds patient identifiers and a subset of patient demographic information. It is a necessary tool for public health to help manage patients, monitor outcomes, and conduct case-based surveillance. This document provides an overview of the project and the deliverables.
