Digital Health Interventions in Strengthening Primary Healthcare Systems in Sub-Saharan Africa: Insights from Ethiopia, Ghana, and Zimbabwe: Datasets for Ethiopia, Ghana and Zimbabwe

This paper synthesizes findings from three independent studies in Ethiopia (DHIS2), Ghana (DHIMS and LHIMS), and Zimbabwe (Impilo E-HR), each playing a unique role in strengthening their respective health systems. We explore how the DHIs have contributed to key health system functions, highlighting successes in data utilization, patient management, and decision-making. At the same time, we report on the challenges faced by implementers, including infrastructure limitations, interoperability issues, and sustainability concerns.
