1. PROJECT BACKGROUND:



The Haiti Strategic Health Information System Program (Haiti HIS) is an $11.5 million cooperative agreement funded by USAID to build the capacity of Haiti’s Ministère de la Santé Publique et de la Population (MSPP) to take ownership of a comprehensive health information system that enables the integration of health records across various digital and paper-based reporting platforms. The program will support the MSPP in drafting an effective eHealth Policy to address interoperability and set data standards; strengthening Haiti’s national health information system—the System d’Information Sanitaire Nationale Unique, or SISNU—by addressing information and technical gaps; and promoting data-driven decision making at national and departmental levels.
