Enterprise architecture requirements for standardising digital health in Uganda's health system
Objective
This research aimed to develop and validate enterprise architecture (EA) requirements to standardise digital health (DH) in Uganda's health system. These requirements were generated from DH challenges identified in an earlier prerequisite empirical study that was conducted to explore the feasibility of contextualising existing international DH standards to improve data use in Uganda's health system.
Methods
The study followed a cross-sectional research design, with the HIV/AIDS and TB disease model as a case study. A walkthrough approach was adopted to validate the derived requirements using purposively selected participants at national and sub-national levels of Uganda's healthcare system. Questionnaires (Google forms) were used to collect validation responses, while quantitative data was analysed using MS Excel.
Results
The results show that the respondents agreed with the DH EA requirements for standardising Uganda's health system. The results represent views from 65.67% of the expected participants drawn from all Uganda's DH stakeholders. Although a few respondents (3.3%) did not agree, most (96.7%) agreed with the requirements as-is. Therefore, the derived EA requirements are deemed suitable for standardising and strengthening Uganda's DH system.
Conclusion
Proper implementation of the EA requirements is expected to produce efficient, cost-effective, quality and safe digital health initiatives for Uganda.
期刊介绍：
Health Policy and Technology (HPT), is the official journal of the Fellowship of Postgraduate Medicine (FPM), a cross-disciplinary journal, which focuses on past, present and future health policy and the role of technology in clinical and non-clinical national and international health environments.
HPT provides a further excellent way for the FPM to continue to make important national and international contributions to development of policy and practice within medicine and related disciplines. The aim of HPT is to publish relevant, timely and accessible articles and commentaries to support policy-makers, health professionals, health technology providers, patient groups and academia interested in health policy and technology.
Topics covered by HPT will include:
- Health technology, including drug discovery, diagnostics, medicines, devices, therapeutic delivery and eHealth systems
- Cross-national comparisons on health policy using evidence-based approaches
- National studies on health policy to determine the outcomes of technology-driven initiatives
- Cross-border eHealth including health tourism
- The digital divide in mobility, access and affordability of healthcare
- Health technology assessment (HTA) methods and tools for evaluating the effectiveness of clinical and non-clinical health technologies
- Health and eHealth indicators and benchmarks (measure/metrics) for understanding the adoption and diffusion of health technologies
- Health and eHealth models and frameworks to support policy-makers and other stakeholders in decision-making
- Stakeholder engagement with health technologies (clinical and patient/citizen buy-in)
- Regulation and health economics
