Besides that, due to the high workload, I often feel pressured and relaxed with food. As a result of being overweight, I…[Read more]

Stakeholders will not know the size of the disease problem if the reported case is under-reported and no action is taken. if the case of over-reporting will have an impact on the accumulation of logistics that have been procured based on plans that use too much data

Information systems are beneficial in the process of investigating an outbreak. Based on my experience with malaria outbreaks. Early warning of an outbreak can be known through an information system called E-WARS (Early Warning, Alert and Response System), an information system that collects aggregate data every week for cases with potential…[Read more]

The existence of Covid-19 in Indonesia has made the government’s attention to the information system better. stakeholder awareness of the digitization of health information systems is getting better. There are 3 covid information systems in Indonesia, namely the New All Record (NAR) in the form of a laboratory-based information system that records…[Read more]

We have a malaria information system called SISMAL. the initial development of SISMAL was carried out in 2010, excel-based from the service level to the center. but this system does not work well because it is not user-friendly. The mechanism for merging excel files requires the same file and folder names so that errors often occur in data recap.…[Read more]

The data obtained from the surveillance information system becomes a DSS in the malaria program. For example, information on the number of cases per province is used to allocate the amount of funding needed to carry out an epidemiological investigation. Another example is the strategy of integrating malaria testing for pregnant women, focusing…[Read more]

I agree with everyone’s opinion, without ICD it will also be difficult to collect data at the global level, making it difficult to know the burden of disease in each country

EMR adds to the workload of doctors, but it is very important for documenting patient data and data communication between departments as well as for the benefit of public health so it needs to be simple and user-friendly. I once went to a hospital in the remote area where the recording of medical records was not yet electronic. Malaria data…[Read more]

Hi Arwin,
Thanks for the very clear explanation. Indonesia has a similar system, but because there is a travel requirement for people in the form of a negative PCR test result, ePassports in Indonesia also provide data on the results of the latest PCR examination which is directly inputted by a laboratory registered with the MoH.

Best regards
Fajar

In my opinion ehaelth is the use of cost-effective and safe information technology to improve health services
