SamenvattingIn 2007, a Focus Group Discussion was held in Arusha, Tanzania, for an early evaluation of two projects, namely The District Health Management Information System (DHMIS) in Mwanza and the Development of a Health Management Information System (HMIS) at facility level at ELCT in Arusha. The implementation of a DHMIS aims to use ICT in improving the ability to collect, store and analyse accurate health data at the district level to increase service delivery efficiency, data accuracy, and effectiveness of intervention, increased accountability and better gauging of health trends in the district. The HMIS project aims at developing a customized HMIS for use in ELCT health facilities’ management while meeting the needs of the national government registration system for the health sector (HMIS-MTUHA). It was found that the projects had achieved 59% awareness, while the empowerment score was 41%. Economic impact scored rather low (27%). This may be expected given the short implementation period, but is also an indicator that dramatic results in this area may not be expected. The sector impact at 54% was lower than that of awareness, but much higher than empowerment and economic impacts. Users indicated more customized patient records (55%) and access to infrastructure and connectivity (52%) which contributed to this impact indicator.
