Description du poste

Background:

In collaboration with and in support of the Côte d’Ivoire Ministry of Health, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) aims to accelerate improvements to patient identity management.
With the assistance of the CDC Technical Assistance Platform (TAP) expertise and resources, and the International Training and Education Center for Health Côte d'Ivoire (I-TECH CIV), Côte d'Ivoire will be able to rapidly evaluate the current solution, identify gaps, and determine an accelerated pathway for addressing those gaps using already available tooling and processes, including those led by TAP.

Project Overview

The collaboration will achieve this aim through a series of activities designed to leverage Côte d’Ivoire’s prior investments and augment those with additional standards-based practices and tooling for scaling beyond their current capabilities and use.
- In the short term, the goal for phase 1 in this fiscal year (FY22; September 2021 - September 2022) is to design and test the next phase of Côte d’Ivoire’s patient identity management solution that improves the ability to identify duplicate patient records across and within systems, to better track patient activity for making decisions about care & treatment (C&T) program direction and resources.
- The long-term goal of the patient identity management solution will be to improve the continuity of care for patients across the health sector, allowing their longitudinal medical records to be available to any point of service they are receiving care from. Lastly, the improved solution will provide a foundation for additional secondary use of the health sector data, such as for surveillance and research users.
