Strengthening the Digital Health Agenda in the Province of Buenos Aires

active

The proposed Project would support the Province of Buenos Aires to increase access to services for the beneficiary population and improve coordination and continuity of care in the public health delivery network of the Province of Buenos Aires. Specifically, the Project would expand the implementation of IHR (an open-source EMR developed by the national MOH) at the point of care and its functionalities and, by improving interoperability, it will integrate EMRs across health facilities and services. In addition, it would contribute to the development and implementation of telemedicine and virtual communication tools. The project will be structured in three components: (i) Implementing Electronic Medical Records/Integrated Health Records (IHR); (ii) Developing and Implementing Virtual Tools for Health Provision and Communication; and (iii) Project Management.
