New technologies for Result Based Financing Inter Agency Working Group, June 2014
New technologies for RBF : where are we? Where are we going? How can connected RBF data systems contribute to a better measurement of results at national and global level? Outline
Current systems • Rwanda • Zimbambwe • ROC • Tadjikistan • Laos • DRC • Tanzania • Vietnam • …. • Nigeria • Benin • Cameroun • Burundi • Sénégal • Zambia • Chad • DRC • Laos • Lesotho • CAR
Key features of RBF IT systems Administrative backbone of RBF • Data entry • Verification process (including fraud) • Payment management • Data management Strategic purchasing • Budget follow up • Payment formula • Fee setting Reporting, benchmarking & data transparency • Sharing data • Exports
RBF web-applications are important: Verified data – quality of care – financing - patient satisfaction Accountability and transparency Better heath System Management RBF management

Strong added value of mobile technologies for Demand Side Financing (DSF) Conditional Cash Transfers (CCT) Vouchers Health Insurance
Added value in terms of efficiency, reliability and governance od DSF systems • Examples • E-vouchers in Ethiopia • CCT for TB in Kenya managed by mobile devices • Mobile money for health insurance in Mali
What comes next? 5 trends that emerged from the ICT4 RBF CoP meeting
1. Merge OpenRBF and DHIS2 development efforts • OpenRBF and DHIS2 teams will work together for developing the best Open Source solution for RBF management. • Use the strength of DHIS2. • Initial ongoing tests in Rwanda and Laos
2. Countries shift to smart data collection Several countries are shifting data collection on mobile devices : ex. Rwanda, Malawi, DRC Countries used to collect information on paper forms
Collection of large quantities of high value information (but is there capacity to handle this?)
4. More demand side financing (and mobile payments) coupled to supply side RBF Build on existing RBF platforms to develop DSF and enhance coverage, equity & targeting. Examples : Zimbambwe, Senegal, Laos, Benin,….
5. It’s only the beginning of interconnected systems (interoperability)
