| Issue/Objective | Management and coordination of healthcare services is the major concern of any government for proper planning and effective service delivery. Some of the challenges faced in Africa in the administration of healthcare are lack of effective processes for identifying knowledge gaps, poor framework for performance evaluation of medical professionals, no realistic feedback on health policies, and lack of platforms for data and knowledge sharing. This work aims to develop a smart connected integrated system (SCIS) for enhanced national health administration |
|---|---|
| Methodology/Approach | A service-level connected framework is developed for integrating health institutions. A secure and privacy-aware intelligent knowledge management system is developed for enhancing collaboration of healthcare institutions in Africa using machine learning and data mining. An intelligent planning and coordination model was developed for effective national management of medical services in Nigeria |
| Results | A scalable prototype mobile application was built using Python, SQL and Anaconda platforms. The system was made to integrate data on human resources, operations, material resources and available medical services A private application programming interface (API) was built for effective integration and handshake of health institutions. The usability test conducted among selected 120 healthcare administrators and medical professionals resulted in 98.3% acceptance |
| Discussion/Conclusion | This shows a system that can be used for effective national planning and coordination of medical services. |
