Sri Lanka is well known for its better health indices when compared with other countries in South Asia. However, the burdens of Non Communicable Diseases (NCD) have increased rapidly during last two decades. NCDs such as neoplasms, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and chronic respiratory pathologies recorded were 10.2, 41.7, 13.3 (related deaths per 100,000 population) respectively during the year 1990. However by 2009, the same NCDs recorded 18.5, 60.6, and 21.9 (related deaths per 100,000 populations) respectively according to the Annual Health Bullatin released by the Medical Statistics Unit - Ministry of Healthcare & Nutrition [1]. Most communicable diseases have been controlled successfully (e.g. Malaria, Polio) several infective diseases, such as, Tuberculosis and Leprosy has been re-emerged due to various reasons. Dengue is also still remains a major crisis in Sri Lankan health sector.
Health Information Systems have been shown an integral role in health systems in facing double burden of disease, specially quantifying the cost of care. Also, Health Information Systems are one of WHO's 6 building blocks for health system strengthening. This work investigates the Sri Lankan scenario empirically based on selected electronic health information systems to evaluate the effect of reducing uncertainty and promoting coordination in the clinical care pathway.

Digital Health in India_Health Informatics Trained Manpower _DrDevTaneja_15.0...DrDevTaneja1
Digital India will need a big trained army of Health Informatics educated & trained manpower in India.
Presently, generalist IT manpower does most of the work in the healthcare industry in India. Academic Health Informatics education is not readily available at school & health university level or IT education institutions in India.
We look into the evolution of health informatics and its applications in the healthcare industry.
HIMMS TIGER resources are available to assist Health Informatics education.
Indian Health universities, IT Education institutions, and the healthcare industry must proactively collaborate to start health informatics courses on a big scale. An advocacy push from various stakeholders is also needed for this goal.
Health informatics has huge employment potential and provides a big business opportunity for the healthcare industry. A big pool of trained health informatics manpower can lead to product & service innovations on a global scale in India.
