- A mobile worker submits a form to the central server
- Data is mapped from CommCare form question values to DHIS2 data elements, event date, org unit (location) and program. (30 kinds of forms, half a dozen indicators per form.)
- A single payload is pushed to DHIS2
Project summary
In Mozambique, the upSCALE An application integrates the entire Ministry of Health’s agentes polivalentes elementares curriculum (elementary multipurpose agents curriculum) into one platform. The platform collects real time data entered by CHWs who deliver health services in the remote areas where they live. Dimagi, with the collaboration of Malaria Consortiumthe partner, developed a live integration of every form submissions using the anonymous events functionality into the Ministry of Health (MISAU) “Community Involvement for Health Information System” DHIS2 instance.
CommCare and DHIS2 DataSets
...
- Mobile workers submit many forms over a period of a month
- After the start of the next month, CommCare retrieves a report for the month just completed. (The report has one column per category option per data element. e.g if the "Live Births" data element is broken down by two gender category options and three attendee category options, the report will have 2 x 3 = 6 columns for live births.)
- Report data is mapped to data elements and category options, and submitted for the period of the month just completed.
Project Summary
In 2017 Dimagi has collaborated with MSH the partner and the Ministry of Public Health of Madagascar to develop the integration between the CommCare application used at the community level and the DHIS2 instance setup by the Ministry. Using Motech MOTECH and the aggregated integration feature, monthly aggregated reporting data coming from community health workers is sent to the DHIS2 instance of the Ministry of Health. The scope of the application includes all indicators on the monthly activity report covering data for IMCI, Surveillance and also stock management.

In order to automate workflows, Dimagi has supported the Center of Disease Control partner to develop a two-way integration between OpenMRS and the Infomovel (a CommCare ) application in Mozambique. This integration pulls data once a week from multiple OpenMRS instances into a single CommCare instance and has successfully allowed health facilities to replace what was previously a manual effort conducted by the team. As part of this collaboration, Dimagi has also trained the local project team in how to configure and maintain this integration so that they can independently and sustain this beyond Dimagi’s involvement in the project.
Fully automated 2-way integration between Infomovel (the CommCare app ) and OpenMRS, removing any manual work involved, in at least one health facility of each one of the partners of the Infomovel consortium.
Multi-instance setup where one CommCare instance exchanges data with several OpenMRS instances. This was dictated by the implementation model adopted in which each health facility has its own OpenMRS instance.

Upon submission of a visit form a Visit, an Encounter and several Observations are created in OpenMRS, according to the location of the user, ensuring that the information collected is reflected in OpenMRS. Patient demographics are also updated in OpenMRs OpenMRS if they change.
CommCare and OpenMRS (with Atom feed)
...
Dimagi supported the single and bi-directional integration between the Possible Health CommCare app and their OpenMRS / Bahmni system. This integration allowed for data tracked in the hospital management system to stay in-step with data collected by clinicians in the facilities. Dimagi also built capacity within the local project team to maintain and extend the CommCare application as well as the integration component of their system.
