Strategic Planning of Integrated Health Information System

The primary aim of the Integrated Health Information Strategy is to recommend the necessary actions to rectify present deficiencies in health information systems and to put in place the frameworks to ensure the optimal development and utilisation of health information.The key to successful implementation of ICT is a strong and universally accepted strategy. A mid- and long term ICT strategy is necessary to achieve such goal. The main objective of this assignment is to develop a mid- and long term ICT strategy within the health care sector. The Integrated Health Information Strategy focuses on health information in its own right rather than on information and communications technology (ICT). The Integrated Health Information Strategy addresses the major information needs of individuals and broad interest groups within society. The use of information to support safe and high-quality client/patient care and in planning, developing, evaluating and accrediting the quality of the health services is a central theme. Special attention must be given to establishing processes and infrastructures to underpin future health information developments. Furthermore, it is recognised that effective use of health information is largely dependent on the skills and knowledge of health service staff and the culture of the environment in which they operate.
