Bringing data into common place through use of appropriate database software Muhammad Abdul Hannan Khan Senior Advisor HMIS GIZ Health Dhaka, Bangladesh 20 June 2011
DMIS Project objectives DMIS is a project funded by giz and its objectives are : • Create a central data warehouse for integration of data from different sources, e.g. MIS Health, FP, NNP, UPHCPII, and vertical programs (EPI, TB etc.) • Enhance utilization and quality of routine data • Improve the HIS related capacity of the MoHFW and the performance of the MISs and programs
Making data compatible and comparable UPHCP MIS EPI TB MIS 01.11.2014
Data warehouse today The data warehouse with about 8 million data values and 1,000 data elements is ready for use, e.g. for indicator monitoring; it can create dynamic reports, graphics and GIS presentation for all levels and different queries A web portal is designed and dashboards containing the most important indicators are ready, allowing the utilization of information at the fingertip MISs have started using the same open source software (DHIS2) DMIS is using; standardization and harmonization processes have been initiated 01.11.2014
Opportunities Use the data warehouse as a basis for an integrated e-health architecture, that pools data from all MISs and other systems, e.g. HRIS, Hospital IS, Logistics, finance and poverty related data; DSF; private sector; patient/case based information; integration of all urban health data (SSFP, UPHCP, etc.) & other upcoming systems (e.g. OP reporting) Improve & decentralize data entry and utilization for program monitoring and decision making 01.11.2014

Need for standard identity of reporting units • Present status: No central register of healthcare service providers and administrative division of a country. • Consequence: missing unique identity of districts, upazilas, facilities and NGOs • Example of different spelling of upazila name:
Need for unified definitions of data elements and indicators • Several MISs collect the same information but uses different names of the data elements. • Data elements are not clearly defined and definitions are not shared between MIS’s • Consequence: It is very difficult to interpret routine data and indicators results • Example:
DMIS standards (data interchange) (ISO/TS 17369: 2005 SDMX-HD) • For metadata - ISO/IEC 11179 • For data interchange - ISO/TS 17369: 2005 SDMX-HD
