Why OpenSRP?

In the pursuit of universal health access, OpenSRP combines evidence-based WHO SMART Guide based workflows and content with FHIR native technology to transform how healthcare is delivered and managed.

Improved Effectiveness

Interoperable

OpenSRP is a “next gen” digital health platform that is based natively on the FHIR data standard. This greatly reduces the complexity to integrate with existing health information systems like DHIS2 or OpenMRS.

User-first

User-friendly design and easy, intuitive navigation facilitates technology adoption — even in low literacy environments.

WHO SMART Guidelines compatible

OpenSRP is one of the first platforms built to support the WHO Smart Guidelines. The WHO SMART Guidelines enable implementers to quickly adapt WHO clinical care protocols into their health systems. Use of SMART guidelines result in standards-based, interoperable systems that can share accurate data.

Improved Continuity of Care

Better communication facilitates better service delivery

Through workflow and decision support logic, OpenSRP facilitates improved and guided conversations between health workers and their clients.

Coordinated care

OpenSRP FHIR data model helps facilitate the coordination of care across the different health workers at the community and facility level responsible for their care.

Danger signs flagged

Through decision support logic, danger signs are flagged, and scripts provide guidance to the healthcare worker in terms of counseling, health education, and referrals that need to be provided.

Client reminders triggered

Through integration with tools like RapidPro, scheduled reminders can be built into OpenSRP. These remind or prompt both the healthcare worker and client, strengthening demand generation for services such as antenatal care visits or immunizations.

Improved Performance Management

Complete offline functionality

OpenSRP, once installed on a device using a data connection, is able to function completely offline. In remote areas, where no cell signals are present, OpenSRP supports P2P sync enabling data sharing between worker and manager devices.

Real-time reporting

Replaces burdensome paper reports and tally sheets with automatically generated digital reports — both helping the health worker track their own daily performance and automating reporting to their manager at health facility or district level.

Dashboard integration

Connect your data from your health application into a data warehouse to power real-time analytics of feed into DHIS2.

Improved Data for Decision-making

Real-time data access

Immediate, real-time access to community-level data greatly reduces data turnaround times. This helps to eliminate challenges faced by traditional systems where data is captured on paper and then re-captured, often weeks later, by a special (often short-staffed and under-resourced) cadre of data capturers into electronic platforms.

Reducing data duplications

Enhanced search and matching functionality allows the healthcare worker to easily find family members – for example, siblings – based on the details of a household, household head or primary caregiver. This all helps to increase data accuracy and reduce data duplication.
