dc.description.abstractThe project aimed to mitigate the impact of the January 2010 earthquake and strengthen the healthcare system in Haiti through application of broad informatics methods to improve, integrate, and build interoperability among information systems through action research, collaboration, and learning. Overall progress was hampered by the cholera outbreak in October 2010. While IDRC-supported work in the area ended in 2012, the momentum for deployment of the new iSanté modules continued. As of 2013, 88 facilities use iSanté for capturing data on HIV patient care, 53 sites use it for women’s health and 43 sites for primary care.en
