Tóm tắt :

In the health systems of many countries, there is neither a requirement to collect a minimum set ofdemographic information during patient registration nor a standard way of identifying patients. Thisimpedes the provision of integrated, good-quality care for individual patients and, at the system level,prevents generation of the high-quality data necessary for effective management and continuousimprovement. Assigning each patient a unique identifier (UID) to create a master patient index (MPI)is therefore essential to ensure data interoperability across all the points of patient care within a healthsystem. Although advances in technology are shifting the boundary between civil registration andpersonal identification, the additional value of an MPI/UID system lies in the technical and operationalcapacity to ensure that clinical data are safely and securely managed. Moreover, operationalization ofMPI/UID data enables the establishment of an evidence-based, constantly improving “learning healthsystem” with feedback loops that allow measurement, evaluation and visualization of performanceover time. The Ministry of Health and Sports of Myanmar is actively engaged in a multistakeholdercollaborative process working towards a nationwide MPI/UID system. Demonstration pilots areplanned for both online and offline modes of operation for HIV/AIDS, mother and child health (includingeliminating mother-to-child transmission of HIV and syphilis) and hospital settings, which are expectedto open up the potential for expansion to all health interventions and facilities. With the implementationof the MPI/UID system under way in Myanmar, the Ministry of Health and Sports is laying thefoundation to put individuals at the centre of care and deliver a lifelong service for all.
