MEASURE Evaluation briefs on how eHealth technologies can support data-informed program management
Advances in information and communications technology (ICT) have increased exponentially the amount of data that health information systems can collect, synthesize, and report. Expansion of these technologies promises to revolutionize the global health sector’s response to most pressing health issues. Even though health program managers are increasingly expected to use and invest in such strategies, many lack information about how the strategies work and how they can benefit the management of health programs. To address this problem, MEASURE Evaluation developed a glossary of eHealth strategies most likely to enhance data access, synthesis, and communication for health program managers at all levels of a health system who are eHealth novices. The complete set consists of fact sheets on: dashboards, hackathons, open data, big data & data science, geospatial analysis, integration & interoperability, and crowdsourcing.
