Overview of our discussionsPBF and HMIS • PBF database and HMIS are twodifferentsystemsthatcanbeinterconnected • A PBF databaseincludes a smallnumberof reliable and verifiable data (<70 data elements). Needs to be transparent (web based). • HMIS systemscollect a comprehensive set of data on the health system (1000>10.000 data elements).
Nextsteps Short term : • Improvethe existing Rwanda and Burundi PBF web application (database) and make a standard application available to agencies/entities in charge of purchasing. www.fbpsanteburundi.bi Medium term : • Interconnect the existing PBF application withthe DHIS HMIS software • Contribute to the development of a simple DHIS HMIS module (<300 data elements), web based, and interconnectedwith the PBF module
