The overall purpose is to strengthen national policies, strategies, standards and reporting related to Kenya’s health information system (HIS & CPIMS), so as to ultimately support County and National level health service provision, Labour and Social Protection. The main aim is to progressively manage evolution of digital health & Children Protection platforms and data systems for evidence-based decision making at both the national and county levels through implementation of HIS & CPIMS policies, standards and guidelines.  HealthIT has two sub purpose areas, namely:

• Technical support to both the Ministry of Health (MoH) and the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection (MoLSP) to achieve strengthened Information Systems that support Health and Child Protection reporting respectively and provide data for decision making for GOK, counties and other stakeholders. The availability and accessibility of key Health Information Systems (HIS) and Child Protection Information Management System (CPIMS) to all stakeholders, as well as assuring that the systems evolution to stakeholder needs are incorporated in the systems.
• Support toward improved institutional capacity of national and county MoH and Department of Children Service on use of information systems, quality data capture and reporting. This includes a key sustainability pillar through capacitating Universities through the County Proximate University model who in turn will provide technical support to systems at their respective twinned Counties.

Key contributions in the implementation for the last four years include:

1. Scale-up of digital health solutions within 5 counties proximate to MMUST. (EMR software Scale-up, infrastructure deployment, provision of technical assistance to MOH, IPs and Counties (data migration) change management and capacity development in the EMR/EHRs software and hardware implementation.
2. Support MoH to conduct national and county data alignment activities to improve data quality of data and promote data use in monitoring epidemic control.
3. Providing technical assistance to 5 county governments and SDPs for the ownership and management of EMR investment at county level.
4. Support the development of Department of Children Services' leadership & governance capability to own, manage and ensure evolution of CPIMS within 5 County governments.
5. Supporting MoH Develop e-learning content for new technology solutions Update and roll out e-leaning content for the current supported system DHIS2/EID/VL/KHMFL systems.

The activities complies with all partner improvement plans and management directives through its agile and nimble management and technical teams to rapidly course-correct using short feedback loops. The project works closely with the MoH and other stakeholders while seeking guidance from the AOR and the activity management team (AMT) to accelerate achievement of benchmarks within timelines.
