Notes:

    Each country have a list of facilities and DATIM(PEPFAR) has a list too and they have to match these different facilities

    So, IH has to develop a tool to match the list and provide a MFL

    Richard: The tool is a DHIS2 app in which you can reconcile map

    What are the different formats a facility list are in?

    Q: who will be the appropriate consumer and what is the use case for this consumer?

    E.g to use the Facility Reconciliation app:

        Upload MoH CSV and fill teh form (facility, code, longitude, levels like District, Region, etc.,...)

        scoring happens in the background based upon algorithms - right now, looking at the parent and the name, uses levenstein and latitude and longitude physical distance algorithms

        select to reconcile the data 

        

        User can then go through the lists to see what matches 

        

Next Steps:

• can add automatic matching thresholds, such as similar geographic distances, though this depends on the quality of the data. Problems with multiple facilities in one building is also a problem (HIV clinic within a hospital)

• health site.io is a place where data can be added 

• Use Cases

• OpenLMIS  matching with DHIS2 

• Need to map two sources of facility data together 

•  - one time running of matching 

• - speak to REAT API 

• - input format 

• Two facility lists 

• - may have different hierarchies 

• seed data 

• Adds after a facility list has been mapped 

Need a history of when you did the matching  - date/time stamp 

Can you maintain two hierarchies in FHIR 

Map data to get additional metadata from other lists that are not in the orricial list 

temporary facilities 

facilities that are not shared
