Result of complicated data collection
                       •   Disorganized files
                       •   Duplicated records
                       •   Cluttered workspace

Mutuelle Office
The Mutuelles are excellent source of
existing patient data

              High adoption rates mean that 80+% of population already have a
Substantial   health record


              Mutuelles verify symptoms, diagnosis and treatment twice in the
 Accurate     same month of health facility visit (this is done at the district level)


              Both paper and electronic records are highly organized and accessible
Organized


              • There is already a mutuelle office at every health center
              • Mutuelles already understand the health center patient file system
Connected     • Mutuelles already partner with health centers for community
                health education
Patient arrives with ID/Insurance card, one
form circulates and information is utilized

Notas del editor

  1. Scale, impact, complexity
  2. Home to health care to hospital is going well! (dan’s and MAP team’s projects)Our project will focus on patient tracking to address follow up care and resource planning
  3. Matt is the most skilled, Annie is the least skilled
  4. <Point>Managed differently- Documentation: different among institutions- ID number: currently only for hospital- Record filing: currently only at hospital
  5. Patient don’t have to carry the file for insuranceRegistrationFirst visit: Fill yellow appointment card, blue record, white patient card, submit 3 referral papersSecond visit and after: Submit yellow appointment card, white patient cardYellow card: Appointment card After consultation, date of the follow up visit written in the yellow card is different from yellow insurance cardAlmost everyone-Insurance 10% (hospital)-Insurance: over 200RFc covered (patient fee is maximum 200Rfc)ID number is not written in white patient card.ID number is only written in yellow appointment card(patient keeps) and blue record (hospital keeps)Even though the treatment finished once, patient have to keep that because it is the only wayTo know their each ID.
  6. Create a vision for changeHelp staff connect with the vision of change. Help them understand their own roleE.g. survey. Not enough to obtain verbal approval. They understand the need for change, but not strong enough
  7. Short term programs help address geographical constraints
  8. Patient don’t have to carry the file for insuranceRegistrationFirst visit: Fill yellow appointment card, blue record, white patient card, submit 3 referral papersSecond visit and after: Submit yellow appointment card, white patient cardYellow card: Appointment card After consultation, date of the follow up visit written in the yellow card is different from yellow insurance cardAlmost everyone-Insurance 10% (hospital)-Insurance: over 200RFc covered (patient fee is maximum 200Rfc)ID number is not written in white patient card.ID number is only written in yellow appointment card(patient keeps) and blue record (hospital keeps)Even though the treatment finished once, patient have to keep that because it is the only wayTo know their each ID.
  9. <Point>Based on the 3 background reasons, realistically, it is difficult to change current employee’s mind to do additional and unfamiliar work.However, electric data improves process efficiency, for example data to submit to MOH can be created at onceIn addition, it is evident that the day comes, when it should manage data electrically. (Maybe must convert paper data into electric data)There should be young, not so expensive worker with computer skills in younger generation. Hire those staff temporarily should be the best option. He might not need to come to Ruli. If it is not possible, assign staff with computer skills might be an option. For example, in Rukura healthcare center, there is less patient, less busy and several employee with computer skills. Not only assigning staff internal hospital, seeking also from heathcare center can be an option.
  10. <Point>For mid-long term, the day will come, the day from when Health Center should manage patient record by its own decision or regulation of MOHCost efficient (same printing, purchase at once  scale merit)Easy to manageBetter for information sharingStandardization makes employee transfer easier- Managing by ID number and consistent filing system helps patient tracking much- In additon, Fax transmission will help those patient information sharing
