5.) Consultant to supervise the vendor for EMR development work

Ref No: R179
Location: Abuja
Job Type: Part Time

Objectives

  • The key objective for this activity is to manage and supervise the vendor’s activities to ensure that the vendor develop and incorporate all the required additional modules/features on the identified existing EMR platform in country (NigeriaMRS)
  • To ensure that it is interoperable (i.e. can communicate data) with the DHIS 2 national instance and the National Data Repository (NDR).

Problem statement:

  • The use of EMR to manage patient level information at facility greatly helps to improve the quality of service provided to patients and it also increases the productivity of health care workers and, ultimately improve the efficiency of the health care system.
  • The challenge faced by health managers include deciding which brand of EMR is ideal for use is the absence of standards to guide the development and deployment which could then be used to evaluate the EMRs before they are deployed.
  • Consequently, there are several EMR solutions in use in Nigeria that will not meet up with the most basic standard of functionality if an evaluation is carried out. Another setback is the huge cost involved in procurement and deployment of such systems (as huge cost is required to pay for licensing and regular renewal of such license as agreed between both parties i.e. vendor and customer) as well as cost for the maintenance and upgrade of such systems.
  • Often times, in a health facility, multiple software may be used to manage a patient, this puts a lot of demand on the part of the health care worker with respect to adapting to multiple brands of software to manage a patient.
