Technical Director, Strategic Information & Evaluation Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation

The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (EGPAF), with Track 1.0 President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), implements and manages the Zambian national electronic health records (EHR) system, SmartCare. SmartCare operates in over 570 health care facilities nationwide and was adopted in 2006 by the Ministry of Health (MOH) as the national patient records system. SmartCare enables clinicians and health districts to capture key patient care information in a robust and secure database. Patient-level data is collected and retained in the EHR saved onsite, affording clinicians the ability to run data queries, check patient progress, see missed clinic visits, and track site-level performance. Through the distribution and use of SmartCards, patients can transfer and travel with a complete picture of their medical history.

EGPAF has recently been awarded a five-year project from CDC for the continued management and implementation of SmartCare, along with an increased focus on data use for quality improvement (QI) and elimination of HIV transmission from mother to child. EGPAF will lead a national effort for use and optimization of SmartCare data for continuous QI of the national HIV/AIDS program.
