  • The Public.
  • The Hospital.
  • The Ministry of health / Policy makers
  • The stakeholders

Why NextGenHIMS

To date delivery of health services in Uganda is paper-based and paper-based medical record systems are known to have major problems of inaccuracy, incomplete data, poor accessibility, and challenges to patient follow-up. Paper based medical systems are also inefficient in record-sharing for interdisciplinary patient assessment in areas with low doctor to patient ratio. It is difficult to collect and organize the patients’ clinical data in a systematic and structured way, considering the difficult simultaneous presence of different databases belonging to different institutions that coexist in the territories. There is also lack of smooth communication flow between patients, communities and health care system stakeholders.

To address these, patient information management systems have been built including customizing of the available free open source digital health platforms for use in hospitals. However, all these have failed to offer a complete integrated up to date digital workflow to hospital management in Uganda; only overcrowding healthcare system with duplicate systems.

NextGenHIMS proudly locally designed and developed with a number of stakeholders involved is the next generation hospital information management system for use by the public for personalized health records, private and public health care centers/clinics/hospitals; stakeholders including ministries, researchers and partners supporting the health care in Uganda.

How NextGenHIMS works

The aim of NextgenHIMs id to improve health care service delivery in Uganda through streamlining patients’ clinical data collection and organization, considering the different diseases’ clinical management workflows and simultaneous presence of different databases.

The next generation hospital information management system (NextgenHIMs) is an integrated software that handles different directions of hospital workflows. It manages the smooth healthcare performance along with administrative, medical, legal and financial control which are key for the successful operation of the healthcare facility.
